Just what the world needs: another consortium promoting a wireless
technology for the transmission of HD content in the home.

The latest is the Wireless Home Digital Interface (WHDI), launched
today by Sony, Samsung, Hitachi, Motorola and Sharp.

WHDI's technology comes from Israeli company Amimon. It uses the 5GHz
band to transmit uncompressed 1080p video, audio and control signals
around the home from multiple sources to multiple receivers. All this
data is beamed at up to 3Gb/s.

Amimon claimed WHDI's range is 30.5m. It can go through walls and has
a latency of less than a millisecond.
