Icron Buzz : Technology Demos at CES
Last month, Icron Technologies generated significant buzz about it's three new technologies demonstrated at International CES 2010 in Las Vegas, NV. Icron's new 802.11n technology that turns any TV in the home into an interactive PC was very well received, with significant press coverage and customer interest. Currently, Icron is discussing with OEM partners the productization of the technology for the consumer market. Review Icron's PC-on-TV datasheet.
Icron also demonstrated its Video + USB Extension technologies over Cat 5 for Remote Desktops for industrial and enterprise applications delivering high resolution PC Video and true USB 2.0 at up to 100m. Icron’s ExtremeUSB® adds remote USB capability to the HDBaseT technology, allowing PC’s to be remotely connected to the TV with mouse, keyboard, game controllers, flash drive, webcam and other USB peripheral I/O support. The combination of the two leading technologies enables OEMs to have a solution for interactive long distance point-to-point PC connectivity, and full HD multimedia distribution via low cost cables for consumer markets.
