New Wireless AV Products Satisfy Consumer Demand for Smartphone to TV, Laptop to TV Experiences
LAS VEGAS — IOGEAR continues its connectivity industry leadership by unveiling today two wireless products to bridge consumers’ favorite HD content across devices for high quality viewing experiences. The IOGEAR Wireless Mobile and WiDi to HDTV is one of the first devices to enable wireless streaming from either the smartphone or laptop to the TV. In addition, the latest release of the Wireless 1080p Computer to HD Display Kit features new compatibility with Apple laptops and a smaller receiver with a horizontal profile for easier integration into entertainment systems. Both products will be demonstrated at the annual International CES (Central Hall, Booth #9029).
IOGEAR was the first to bring to market wireless streaming from a laptop or PC to a TV with the introduction of the Wireless Audio/ Video Kit in 2008. The Wireless Mobile and WiDi to HDTV and Wireless 1080p Computer to HD Display Kit builds on that innovative leadership, allowing individuals and families to move between devices and share content.
“As more consumers move toward mobile devices and multiple screens, IOGEAR’s new products bring seamless integration and flexibility across products,” said IOGEAR CEO Jack Wang. “IOGEAR’s leadership and innovation help create personalized, connected environments that reach beyond the traditional television screen and enhance the sharing experience.”
