WHDI is the new wireless audio and video standard that allows high definition wireless streaming to any display throughout a home network. WHDI stands for Wireless Home Digital Interface. This technology is being driven by AMIMON, the semiconductor company producing the chipsets and modules for WHDI.
WHDI by Amimon is a competitor of Intel's Wireless Display technology (read here and here). Both technologies provide almost the same technology of sharing or streaming videos from your computer, laptop, netbook to any other display devices in your home network; the former bumping up with fancier capabilities.
As of the latest, a WHDI capable device was demonstrated to stream HD (1080p) 3D uncompressed videos. The set up was a laptop with a WHDI transmitter borad and on the receiving end, an LCD with a WHDI receiver board. Aside from steaming 3D videos wirelessly, WHDI also transmits through walls and even a distance of up to 100 feet. Intel WiDi can only reach up to 20 feet.
The future of wireless video looks bright. I look forward to mass roll-out of WHDI-capable devices.
