Abstract:
DisplayPort is built on a packet-based architecture. This makes it a uniquely flexible and extensible video interface standard, and it also enables tunneling of the display stream on other interface protocols.
The speaker will review the latest developments in the DisplayPort standard: tiled displays and multi-stream for multiple monitors; market proven support for deep color 4K resolutions; a new compression standard that will take DisplayPort beyond 4K; Adaptive-sync, which matches computer render rates to display refresh rates; and DockPort which adds USB data transport and power over the DisplayPort cable and connector.
