ASUS is branching out into every market it can think of, but it hasn't yet managed to make an impact in the monitor space. Its current range of displays haven't set the world alight, and ASUS it seems is in need of a new formula.
That formula, as it turns out, comes in the form of Realtek's Wireless USB technology. ASUS has announced that a collaboration with Realtek has resulted in a new series of wireless monitors that'll pair with either Wireless USB HWA (Host Wire Adaptor) or WHCI (Wireless Host Controller Interface) solutions attached to the PC.
Vincent Chiou, Director of ASUS Display BU, said:
"Wireless operation opens up an entirely new experience to our customers, with unsurpassed convenience and ease-of-use. Our search for high performance and quality led us to choose Realtek's state-of-the art Wireless USB solutions as a key component in raising the easy usability of ASUS monitors to a new level."
ASUS promises the performance of a wired connection and states that the connection and disconnection process is as easy as it gets thanks to automatic system configuration.
We're fans of all things wireless, but we're not sure if there's a need for wireless monitors just yet. That is, unless you really dislike clutter. There's no word on pricing or launch dates just yet, but we'd wait for reviews before handing over your hard-earned.
