Wired 11.50: Beyond Wi-Fi

The 5 next big things. This superfast, short distance wireless technology promises data speeds 10 times faster than Wi-Fi. It works by transmitting its signal over a wide swath of frequencies, including licensed bands, at such a low power that it doesn't interfere with the other occupants of the spectrum. If it works, UWB could give rise to a new generation of portable and home entertainment products. Digital video, audio, or television streams could be managed with UWB quality equal to a hardwired system, and its high speed and low power consumption make it perfect for home networking. First-generation UWB products are expected in late

Video Cameras
Video cameras record live-action scenes that are available for viewing via a stored or transmitted video feed. This allows the user to create a permanent and detailed chronicle of events. Video cameras record dozens of pictures (or frames) a second that when viewed in succession, clearly distinguish the translation of an object or person over time.
Wireless Communications Services
Wireless communications services provide cellular phone service, SMS, WAP and GPRS services to mobile phones.
