Able to provide up to three HD streams from 10 meters away using UltraWideBand
Chip manufacturers TZero Technologies and Analog Devices have joined forces to create a wireless HDMI standard. Alleging that prior implementations of wireless HDMI haven't been up to acceptable levels, TZero has built their current prototype on the standards set forth by Panasonic, Philips, Samsung, Sharp and Sony in July 2003.
TZero manufactures chips for ultrawideband technology, the backbone transmission system that is forecasted to act as a wireless replacement for USB. The wireless HDMI system claims speeds of 500MBits/second and resistance to common sources of interference such as microwave ovens and cordless telephones. In addition, the standard is calling for a high level of reliability with "less than one in one hundred million" packets having an error or being lost.
"It needs to be good under all conditions," said Dan Karr, VP of TZero's marketing division. "Wi-Fi serves this market very well, but in a video environment you can see that would be very problematic."
