RDK Management and Metrological announced the availability of an environment for app developers to remotely develop and test apps on top of the RDK. Metrological combined its application framework with the RDK to create Metrological's RDK App Emulator. Metrological will administer and distribute the new emulator to developers looking to create apps on top of the RDK, regardless of whether they are RDK licensees.

The new app developer environment uses the RDK and RDK Emulator to enable developers to prototype, develop and test RDK applications remotely on a laptop without using a physical RDK device or set-top box. Developers can access the Metrological's RDK App Emulator directly at www.metrological.com.
