USB to go Wireless? , Intel develops Certified Wireless Usb
From intel
Universal Serial Bus, or USB, is the most successful interconnect in computing history. Originally released in 1995 at 12 megabits per second (Mbps), USB today operates at 480 Mbps and can be found in billions of PC, CE, and mobile devices. In addition to high performance and ubiquity, USB enjoys strong consumer brand recognition and a reputation for ease-of-use.
Its a fact for all of the computer users, even the mobile users know of it even if they dont have a computer, USB is here to stay, people are selling USB powered heaters and chillers. Now the bad part, yes we all also do have a mess of wires at the back of our Computers, its a fact, we all hate it but we cant just live without USB. But thanks to Intel we can have a solution to this problem in exchange for a smaller problem. Wireless USB is here to stay.
How ?
A Ultra-Wideband Radio will enable the Wireless USB to provide speeds of 480Mb/s at the range of Three meters and a speed of 110Mb/s at a range of Ten meters. Spectrum USed will be from 3.1 to 10.5 GHz at a very low power.
Only one problem or annoyance
You wont be able to enjoy the usb powered devices as there is no wire and hence no power can be supplied to the device. Either you have to use another wire to power up the device or you have to use a rechargeable device. Looks like you cant have a total uncluttered desktop yet.
More Details are available on:
