Intel Shows Off Push TV From A Laptop With WiDi at CES 2010
Intel showed us a demo that allows you to stream video and audio wirelessly from your laptop to a TV via WiFi that was pretty slick. This means that you no longer need to hassle with with HDMI cables or anything like that thanks to Intel’s Wireless Display technology (WiDi). Intel’s WiDi is built in to the laptop, so all you need is an off the shelf receiver. This demo used the Netgear Push2TV PVT1000 box ($99) to act as the link between the notebook and the HDTV. This method works great, but you won’t be able to use WiDi to play copy protected content to your HDTV. Check out the video clip below to see WiDi sync up in real time.
“Computing is no longer confined to your computer it’s everywhere,” Otellini said during his CES keynote speech. “Advances in connectivity, intuitive user interfaces, immersive content and computer chip performance have allowed computing to move into new areas. Computing moving into all manner of devices and experiences all around us improves our personal productivity and enjoyment.”
