A Computer Completely Without Wires - Its Here

Computers have clearly come on a long way since they first became commercially available. The most obvious advances have been in reducing the size of different computer parts, sometimes by up to as much as 5000%. This has meant that computers are great deal lighter and more mobile and also means that more technology and electrical components can be fitted in without compromising on overall size.

One area that has only really been adopted quite recently is wireless technology. Most notably this technology has been used in wireless keyboards and mice, and also wireless internet connection. However, most computers are still built using wires or cable to connect the various components and this has its draw backs. Firstly wires are fiddly and get the way when trying to move or add computer components. They can also often become faulty and make it difficult to track down hardware problems.

There is however new technology currently being refined that will allow all the components in a computer that were previously connected via cable, to instead have the ability to transfer data wirelessly.To put this in real terms the processor will be able to communicate will all other parts of the machine without the need for internal wires, which also means their will be less connection ports on each item and less chance of dust or dirt getting into them.  It will also mean that all the elements of computer needn’t necessity be all together and can instead be spread out over a room. This is very handy if you want to quickly connect an additional computer component without having to open the casing up, and also means you can transport different parts around with you.

The technology is still in testing stages but will be included in a number of computer systems by 2012 along with the new beacon light technology for HD computer monitors.
