With the significant development and prevalence of consumer electronic devices, seven leading manufacturers, Hitachi, Panasonic Corporation, Philips, Sony, Technicolor, Toshiba, and Silicon Image, gathered together in 2002 and established the consortium of HDMI to jointly define a digital interface specification for consumer electronics products.
HDMI technology, which is capable of delivering clear digital audio and video signal via a single cable, provides end users with a superior HD experience, making the connection and transmission of all digital data easier and better. According to HDMI official statistics, more than 1,200 of the world’s largest and leading consumer electronics manufacturers have adopted HDMI connectivity.
Steve Ma, Executive VP at Vivotek, stated, "We are now facing an irresistible shift from the analogue to digital generation. A common standard for ensuring digital data transmission and communication is exceptionally important. Vivotek, as the leading provider of HD network cameras, is pleased to become an official HDMI adopter. By adopting the standard, the usability of our products will increase tremendously.”
