Qualcomm announced this week that it will license the intellectual property for USB-on-the-Go from TransDimension.
USB-on-the-Go, also known as OTG, is a portable supplement to the USB 2.0 specification that allows a peer-to-peer or direct connection among USB devices without a PC as intermediary.
When integrated into a handset, users would be able to connect their phones to USB printers, portable keyboards, CD-ROM drives, MP3 players, and digital cameras among the hundreds of other USB devices now available.
