With this innovative new Wireless Media Stick from HSTi, you can now access your network files by simply plugging this device into a device with a USB drive, any USB-enabled DVD/Blu-ray player, TV, stereo, or digital picture frame.
The wireless media stick creates a virtual mass storage drive and allows you to stream your files from one network drive to any device you plug it into.
The device can be configured and modified via a web-based control panel accessible from any PC in your home. It also allows you to use your existing remote control.
Features and Benefits
The Wireless Media Stick offers a range of features that make it a versatile and convenient tool for home entertainment systems. One of the standout features is its ability to create a virtual mass storage drive. This means that you don’t need to transfer files physically; instead, you can stream them directly from your network drive. This is particularly useful for households with multiple devices and users, as it eliminates the need for multiple copies of the same file.
Another significant benefit is the ease of configuration. The web-based control panel is user-friendly and can be accessed from any PC within your home network. This allows for quick and easy setup and modifications, making it accessible even for those who are not tech-savvy. Additionally, the device is compatible with your existing remote control, adding another layer of convenience.
Practical Applications
Imagine you’re hosting a movie night and want to stream a film stored on your home network to your living room TV. With the Wireless Media Stick, you can simply plug it into the TV’s USB port and start streaming without any complicated setup. The same applies to music; you can stream your favorite playlists to your stereo system effortlessly.
For photographers and digital artists, the Wireless Media Stick can be a game-changer. You can display your portfolio on a digital picture frame without having to transfer files manually. This is particularly useful for exhibitions or client meetings where you want to showcase your work seamlessly.
Now word on pricing or availability at the moment but more information I am sure will be released after it’s launched at CES.
