Product Description
mobiShow is a device built on the mTVic platform which provides an easy-to-setup, efficient and cost-effective wireless solution to migrate PC and SmartPhones applications to TV. By connecting a PC or SmartPhone to a mobiShow device via WiFi, it will wirelessly stream HD movies, project the Desktop, transcode any video format on-the-fly, or integrate any internet services. The mTVic platform is to be opened for application designers, content providers and device makers.
Market Opportunity
The DigiTimes reported that SmartPhones shipped 152 million units last year, and will grow at 32.32% in 2008 and 35.8% in 2009. In-Stat said Smartphones will grow at over 30% for the next five years. We expect mobiShow and other mTVic-enabled devices will reach 50% over the next few years.
DEMO Says
Born of expertise in delivering high-definition, PC-based presentations to the television screen, mobiShow makes it easy to discover and watch IP-based video. Interesting enough. But it’s the transcoding of PC-based video into high-definition video scaled to fit the television screen that makes Awind’s offering remarkable. We predict a successful direct-to-consumer offering and anticipate the integration of this technology into many other consumer products.
