WiMedia folds, UWB spec goes to Bluetooth, USB groups

摘要

The WiMedia Alliance is handing over all current and future specification development of its version of ultrawideband (UWB) to the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, the Wireless USB Promoter Group and the USB Implementers Forum. Once the handoff is completed, it will shut down.rnAccording to Stephen Wood, president of the WiMedia Alliance, the move is, "a modification to the industry structure we've been discussing and negotiating with the [three groups] since about July of last year."
