Abstract:
It seems everyone is buzzing about 4K these days and more TVs and mobile devices are being released from leading manufacturers that support this resolution. But 4K still has a long way to go before it’s ubiquitous. What will be the tipping point for this technology? Marshall Goldberg will discuss how connectivity standards such as MHL and HDMI are key ingredients inside mobile and CE products and why a standards-based approach can help drive adoption. During this session, you’ll learn how:
· 4K videos and high-resolution photos can be captured on smartphones and output at full resolution on 4K TVs. This has led to a content revolution where consumers themselves become the content creators.
· Consumers can enjoy their favorite 4K movies and other premium content securely and seamlessly because of HDCP 2.2.
· MHL leverages existing and popular connectors (along with supporting the reversible connector trend) to reduce consumer confusion
· How MHL is future proofing its technology to look beyond 4K to 5K and 8K
