Is RED working on a wireless HD video transmitter module?
Would be great to have a slick RED solution for getting video wirelessly to the director / client monitor.
 
Yeah it would be nice to see RED bring out a solution in a module so to avoid having to bolt things on.
RED price point would be cool too :-)

Not exactly HD, but they do have a PROXY Module in the works which will stream H.264 to your iPads and similar devices. :thumbsup:

EDIT: You may/probably already know this though...
 
I still didn'yt try out but will soon add to my home HDMI set up and also try out to wireless transmit RED HD-SDI to HDMI signal (with AJA Hi5 3G converter) to my desktop using BM Intensity Pro card.

All that costs $999 and is made by Gefen:

Extend HDMI at 1080p/60 Hz up to 10 meters (30 feet) away!

The Wireless for HDMI 60 GHz Extender extends high-quality uncompressed HDMI 1.3 audio/video at resolutions of up to 1080p/60 Hz to any remote display location up to 30 feet away without the hassle of wires. The Wireless for HDMI 60 GHz Extender employs advanced high-frequency radio technology to support the high multi-gigabit data transfer rates of HDMI 1.3 with 8-channel digital audio.

This is a perfect solution in scenarios where traditional cabling cannot be applied. The plug-and-play installation makes it simpler than ever to extend HDMI to another room or to a ceiling projector in a matter of minutes, all without ever having to run cables and drill through walls or ceilings.
How It Works

The Wireless for HDMI 60 GHz Extender system uses a pair of Sender and Receiver units. The HDMI source is attached to the HDMI input on the Sender unit. The Receiver unit is attached to an HDMI-compliant display in the desired viewing area. The Sender and Receiver are arranged in a line-of-sight orientation with respect to each other and without obstructions in the way of the radio signal path. The Sender and Receiver are powered on and put into pairing mode using their dedicated reset buttons. Within a few seconds, the units find each other and wireless radio pairing mode commences. A sharp and vibrant high-definition picture emerges on the remote extended HDMI-compliant display as AV signal extension completes.

During setup and operation, 4 LED Indicators on the front of the Sender and Receiver units will illuminate to indicate operational states such as power status, pairing activity, strength of the wireless signal, and signal blockage.

HDMI 1.3 Features Supported.

or with the First Wireless HDMI Extender featuring Cable-Free High Definition Extension up to 30 Feet.

The Gefen Wireless HDMI Extender is the perfect solution for sending up to three High Definition AV sources to any one location without the hassle of wires. The Gefen Wireless HDMI Extender is able to accomplish this by employing Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology to send the large amounts of data required by the HDMI standard. Up to a 30 foot line-of-sight distance (less if going through a wall to an adjacent room) is achievable with resolutions of up to 1080p@30 supported.

This is a perfect solution in scenarios where traditional cabling cannot be applied. The plug-and-play installation makes it simpler than ever to extend HDMI to another room or to a ceiling projector in a matter of minutes, all without having to run cables and/or drill through walls and ceilings.

The Gefen Wireless HDMI also doubles as a High Definition AV switcher. There are three High Definition AV inputs (2 HDMI and 1 Component) that are selectable by the transmitting unit.

If the wireless receiver is located in an remote location, the IR repeater feature will relay remote control commands from your location back to the source. Once the IR blaster is properly placed, simply pointing your existing remote control at the receiver will send the remote commands back to your AV source device(s) for a truly seamless experience.

Finally – Wireless HD that Works>>>
 
Anyone try this $288 solution on Amazon.com?

Says it has a NO LATENCY feature for playing video games.

High Definition in the Air
The Air HD Wireless HD Kit contains a transmitter (BV-2500T) and a receiver (BV-2500R), allowing you wirelessly to stream uncompressed High-Definition video from any HD video source device to your HDTV anywhere in the house. All of your AV sources can be placed in a separate room from your display when you run your Blu-ray player, set-top box, game console, DVR, and AV receiver into the BV-2500T HDMI transmitter and then equip your HDTV with a BV-2500R receiver. The setup and transmission is smooth and simple, with no complicated connections necessary. Just plug in and let the air do the work.

High Quality’s Never Been Better or Easier
The built-in Omni-directional Antenna System enables wide-range HD video transmission (Line of Sight Max. 70 ft. or 20 m and Non-Line of Sight Max. 35 ft. or 10m, depending on the environment). The quality achieved is equal to an HDMI wired connection. The HD transmission even goes through walls, with virtually no latency to deal with (less than one millisecond). With the No-Latency feature, users can play High-Definition video games using the wireless link, without experiencing fuzziness or stuttering. The BV-2500 supports HD up to: 1080i @ 60Hz, and 1080p @ 24/25/30Hz. The Air HD works with both HDMI and analog outputs. It supports analog audio at 48khz and 24-bit per sample, and digital up to 3.072Mbps AC-3 and DTS.

If it really works... at this price, RED could just license the technology for the transmitter from these guys, repackage it in a module and send to their receiver(s).

Not too bad compared to Transvideo or IDX.

Something t think about for sure.

Yeah not too bad compared to the Transvideo but the IDX is 2.5x cheaper!

Obviously the Boxx and TitanHD look more robust but would be interested in a shoot out if the IDX is 2.5 times worse :)

Does anyone have experience if this is the case as am about to pull the trigger on the IDX?

For anyone interested:
Boxx TX & RX - £8,500 = $12,666

IDX CW-5HD Cam-wave TX & RX = $4,999 here.

TitanHD TX & RX - 8700Eur = $11,665 here.

Sorry if this is :jacked:

If there is an HD TX RX from RED in the near future I could rent for now :)
 
I was under the impression the Camwave cant do point to multipoint thought?

According to the manual it can "Multicast" TX to unlimited RX but the transmitted signals are not encoded by 256bit AES encryption - not sure if thats what you mean't :) I am new to Wireless Transmitting Tech :blush5:

All the best,

Tom
