At least three dueling wireless technologies for high-definition TVs will be on display. One of the key players will be WirelessHD, a consortium that includes Sony and Toshiba. It is also rumoured that Intel has also joined the group.
It's an unusual group in that the home-entertainment industry hasn't generally been a leader in wireless technologies, most of which have been pioneered by makers of cellphones or computer-networking gear.
According to the US Wall Street Journal consortium is set to announce next Monday that Intel is joining the group, which could broaden the reach of the technology from home-entertainment applications to computers. Intel has been a champion of wireless technologies including Wi-Fi, and more recently, WiMax, a longer-range technology.
