AverLogic Demonstrates “Innovations of High Definition Streaming in Digital Home” at CES 2009

CES 2009 is right around the corner! At this show to be held in Las Vegas on January 8-11, AverLogic Technologies, the video processing IC and specialty memory design company and available through GLYN High-Tech Distribution, will do a live demonstration of its a Power-line Digital Home with its exciting and comprehensive solutions, including “H.264 HD A/V streaming over Power-line”, “iPod® and 192KHz Audio Streaming over Power-line”, and “IP Camera over Power-line”.

Other AverLogic’s expert video solutions on display include the fastest and highest density “Full HD Video FIFO Memory” in the world today, 4-CH Multiplexer, PoE + Network Video Server/IP Camera module, MPEG4/2/1 USB Grabber, Digial/Analog OLED/LCD Display, etc.

The major highlight in the AverLogic booth will be the H.264 HDMI 1080p HD A/V Streaming over Ethernet or Power-line module, consisting of a transmitter (TX) and a receiver (RX). It allows H.264-compressed HD (up to 1920x1080 at the frame rate of 24p or 60i) video and audio digital signals to stream from your A/V equipment, such as Blu-ray Disc™ player, video game console like PS3, HD DVD or STB, to your compatible HDTV. The combination of H.264 CODEC, Media Network Controller, and PLC technologies makes the video and audio content stream smoothly (data size 20M to 8M) and widely (from 1st to 3rd floor) at home. One TX in living room can deliver signals to 3 RXs in 3 rooms. The RX can be easily integrated into your HDTV via HDMI™ and it avoids the hassles of wiring job between your A/V transmitting and receiving equipments. It basically supports one source (HDMI), and optionally supports up to five sources (HDMI x 4 + Y/Pb/Pr x 1) which can all be controlled by the TX-included remote at RX side.

iPod® and 192KHz Audio Streaming over Power-line will be the second highlight. The new Audio reference design incorporates cutting-edge audio processors and power line communication technologies to allow CD-quality digital audio data to transport over the power line. Both of the reference designs, streaming iPod® and 192KHz audio over power line, can be easily adapted to a variety of audio system applications that send and receive audio content from any source anywhere in a home. The performance of this solution provides top-grade sound quality delivery as if it is delivered via top-end audio cable. A configurable latency time can be as low as 10ms, meeting the high-end stereo system criterions and an audiophile’s expectations.  An iPod® docking connector is also incorporated on board with full function control supported, including the remote control IR feedback from the receiving unit. The reference design guarantees a stable audio streaming by using the proprietary Dynamic Bandwidth Management (DBM) technology to ensure a smooth streaming quality, even over the noisy power line environment. You will see a PLC outdoor speaker live demo in the AverLogic booth.

Last but not least, AverLogic will demonstrate IP Camera over Power-line. IP camera is a stand-alone device that doesn’t need a computer for normal operation. It transmits real-time video/audio signals over existing power line, so the IP Camera and signal receiving monitor can be anywhere beside a power socket at home. This IP camera module transmits the configurable MPEG-4 compressed video and audio streaming data with TCP/IP protocol through not only Power-line, but also Ethernet, or WiFi to receiver. Therefore, you can also use a computer to browse the camera IP address and watch the real-time video and audio at home when you are in office or any other place where you can get on the Internet.

These Audio/Video streaming solutions takes the advantage of existing Power-line infrastructure in the home, so you don’t need to worry about the distance and connecting cable between A/V transmitting and receiving equipments. Users can simply plug and play to enjoy high performance audio and home theatre at anywhere in the home.
