Development of the Industry's First Wi-Fi Direct™ Remote Control Transmitter

    
 We are pleased to announce the development of the industry's first Wi-Fi Direct™ remote control transmitter, for which we have started to take custom orders.
 In line with the increased sophistication of various devices, demands have increased in recent years for the installation of input devices such as motion sensors and touch pads that enable remote controls to be operated more intuitively.
 There is also increased demand for the inclusion of wireless modules that allow the transmission of large-volume data such as the bi-directional transmission of audio data.
 By installing Wi-Fi PAN SoC (Note1), this product consumes less power and has lower latency (Note2), than standard Bluetooth® wireless communication. Furthermore, it avoids radio-frequency interference and realizes seamless communication by using up to two frequency bands (2.4GHz/5GHz).
 Adding this Wi-Fi Direct™ remote control transmitter to our product lineup allows us to expand our remote control business for a variety of uses mainly in the consumer field such as digital AV devices.


Date Released 2013/02/26
Release No. 977fc
Product Name Wi-Fi Direct™ remote control transmitter (custom order)
Features

1) Realizes low-latency and a high transfer rate (Note3).
2)  Long-life product (Note4).
3)  By supporting the communication of large-volume data, it enables the bi-directional transmission of audio data (Note5).
4)  Realizes seamless communication by using up to two frequency bands (2.4GHz/5GHz).

【Terms】
Note1) Wi-Fi PAN SoC    : Wi-Fi Personal Area Network System-on-Chip
