SUNNYVALE, Calif., February 2, 2015 – DVDO, Inc. an award-winning provider of high-quality, high-definition (HD) video processing, switching and connectivity solutions, today announced that its Air3C, WirelessHD® adapter has been named a 2015 CES Innovation Awards Honoree in the Home Audio/Video Components & Accessories product category. Air3C was recognized for its outstanding engineering in cutting edge consumer electronics products across 28 product categories and judged by a prominent panel of independent industrial designers, independent engineers and members of the trade media. The prestigious CES Innovation Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA)®, the producer of the International CES, the global gathering place for all who thrive on the business of consumer technology, and have been recognizing achievements in product design and engineering since 1976.
Integrating 60GHz WirelessHD technology, DVDO’s Air3C provides a cable-free environment to consumers seeking a clean in-room installation. Wires detract from a modern home entertainment setup. Air3C transports HD video and multi-channel digital audio with near zero latency using a robust wireless beam.
“Entries are evaluated on their engineering, aesthetic and design qualities, intended use/function and user value, how the design and innovation of the product directly compares to other products in the marketplace and unique/novel features present,” said the CEA Innovation Awards Team. “Products chosen as CES Innovation Honorees reflect innovative design and engineering in some of the most cutting edge tech products and services coming to market.”
“We couldn’t be more excited about Air3C being recognized with an Honoree award,” said Doug Fealtman, general manager of DVDO. “With Air3C, we’ve made WirelessHD connectivity effortless for entertainment enthusiasts and integrators. A professional grade version that ships with our Air3C-Pro configuration software is also available giving installers full control of all aspects of the wireless link. Our easy-to-use utility can lock down a working installation so customers cannot later disrupt the wireless link creating unreliable playback.”
