Intel moves closer to wire-free computing

By Agam ShahAugust 21, 2014 08:40 PM ET It's developing a smart dock to wirelessly connect to monitors and peripherals. IDG News Service - Intel is taking more steps to provide what it calls "wire-free" computing by 2016, a plan the company first talked about publicly in June at the Computex trade show.
The company is developing a smart dock through which laptops can wirelessly connect to monitors and external peripherals, it said in a blog entry.
The dock will remove the need to plug HDMI or DisplayPort display connectors directly into laptops. The wireless dock will provide USB 3.0-like speeds to transfer data to external peripherals.
"When you walk in the office with your laptop, it will automatically link with your wireless-enabled monitor or projector to deliver an HD streaming experience without the hassle of plugging into your HDMI or DisplayPort," Intel said.
