(Sidenote: Honestly it's kinda weird to me that we haven't seen hardly any of this in consumer spaces. The newer USB-C revisions could easily supply power, display, audio, and network to the average TV over one cable.) Now, with true wireless power (I'm thinking of this video in particular), that proposition can change dramatically. permalink fedilink source parent
