Working towards easier, speedier mobile content delivery

Yesterday, the WiFi Alliance introduced WiFi Direct™, the name for its peer-to-peer technology.  Though the specification is nearing completion, we can begin to imagine how such an offering will impact consumers’ interactions with each other and with data.  Imagine being able to easily share photos of your summer vacation with your friends – all via a direct WiFi connection on your mobile device. The industry is getting closer to making these real-life capabilities.

 

While WiFi Direct may still be in development, the excitement and promise for this technology continues to grow.  TI continues to support the latest mobile wireless LAN specifications in our WiLink™ products and will have our WiLink™ 6.0 certified to the new specification when it is ready in mid 2010. We look forward to seeing the new and unique use cases that will emerge with the availability of this technology.
