Exhibitors at the event ranged from all types of industries, including Hollywood. One that stood out was Amimon from San Jose, Calif., and their product Connex, which delivers wireless HD not through WiFi, but via a video-modem technology developed from the ground up through algorithms, chips, firmware, RF etc., and therefore can deliver full HD zero latency over long range, says David Shefler, Vice President, Global Sales and Business Development at Amimon. It enables command and control of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and their payload gimbals with zero latency. However, this was not developed for military platforms, it originated as a way to control cameras wirelessly in film production.

Their demo system from the event is pictured above. Its transmitter is connected with an HDMI cable, is battery powered, and enables telemetry data to be transmitted over their wireless link directly to a controller's screen. It has a range of as far as one kilometer. "The solution is a game changer because it has zero latency and essentially comes in a box and can be assembled in less than five minutes, which saves money on training and maintenance," Shefler says. "We call it plug and fly." For more on Amimon and Connex, visit www.amimon.com.
