Point-And-Connect Links For Wireless Devices
Maybe I'm a little confused, or maybe Sony researchers have never heard of infrared or Bluetooth, but it appears they're working on yet another wireless technology for connecting devices. They're not working on it in any association or working group or what have you. They're just building some technology themselves, called Gaze-Link, that will let you easily connect your devices via a wireless connection. Knowing Sony's history, if this works, they'll just start offering it on all their products, and hope it becomes the defacto standard.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
