New WirelessHD Consortium Formed for HD Video Signal Streaming
The Associated Press is reporting today that seven heavyweight electronics makers (LG Electronics, Matsushita Electric Industrial/Panasonic, NEC, Samsung Electronics, Sony, Toshiba, SiBEAM) have joined forces to form the WirelessHD Consortrium and develop a new 60-gigaherz radio frequency technology that will be capable of streaming uncompressed HD video as early as 2008. The format is designed to work within ranges of 32-feet and can deliver high-definition video at multi-gigabit data rates – faster than any other radio technology in development. The group intends to integrate WirelessHD into future HDTVs and a range of other audio-video equipment, as well as make it compatible with other video formats.
