Wisair and silex technology have agreed to bring UWB-enabled wireless video solutions to home entertainment and office equipment markets. Under the agreement, silex will partner with Wisair to provide high-definition, high-bandwidth wireless data feeds of movies, gaming and presentations in next-generation projectors, flat-panel displays, DVDs and DVRs.

“As office equipment and home users are seeking to eliminate inconvenient and cumbersome cables, the opportunity for products featuring wireless video transmission is huge,” said Katsuhiro Yagi, senior product manager, UWB product marketing at silex. “Wisair has proven WiMedia-based UWB chipsets that can be integrated into both host and device products, making it an ideal partner for our new generation of products that are being designed to transmit high-quality video wirelessly over short ranges.”
