The number and diversity of devices in our lives is exploding. Consumers want and demand the total Internet, with open access to websites, applications, and services using all devices. The challenge is that fragmentation across devices, operating systems, and browsers hinders innovation. The result? Consumer demands are not being met. The Open Screen Project was established to meet these challenges and expectations. It is an industry-wide initiative, led by Adobe with the participation of industry leaders, to enable the delivery of rich multiscreen experiences built on a consistent runtime environment for open web browsing and standalone applications.
Establishing a consistent runtime environment
With a consistent and broadly adopted runtime, stakeholders can focus more closely on developing the next-generation experiences that will differentiate their devices, software, and services. Consumers ultimately win with richer, more interactive, and universal user experiences across devices.
The Adobe® Flash® Platform will provide the consistent runtime environment envisioned by Open Screen Project partners. This technology was chosen because it has the widest reach in the world across operating systems and devices, a community of more than one million developers, and leading authoring tools.

Innovating through industry collaboration
Realizing their common vision — to enable consumers to engage with rich Internet experiences seamlessly across any device, anywhere — requires collaboration among operators, OEMs, chipset vendors, content providers, and developers. No one player can do it alone. Working together, Open Screen Project partners will:
- Give consumers greater choice by making implementations of the next major releases of the Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR runtimes open and addressable by third-party developers
- Mitigate technology fragmentation by allowing Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR to be updated almost seamlessly over the network
- Unleash the creative potential of designers and developers around the world by enabling them to easily publish content and applications across connected devices
