Intel WiDi technology demonstrated at Intel Developer Forum

Intel’s WiDi (pronounced in a similar manner somewhat to “wide eye”) technology was showcased at the Intel Developer Forum, where this wireless display technology is useful for streaming video as well as other content from a computer to a large display TV. At the demonstration, an Intel representative used a tablet computer that is powered by an Intel Atom processor as well as sporting WiDi capability in order to showcase the power (or rather, potential) of WiDi. The large display TV mirrored the tablet in every manner, albeit with a little bit of extra lag. Overall, everything seemed to run just fine, streaming high quality audio and video sans wires. Granted that this is but a tech demo as at press time, and the tablet itself Intel used isn’t even in the market just yet, but the future has just gotten much more versatile.
