The Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast technology replaced the use of cables to screen-cast (mirror your smartphone or laptop’s screen\u00a0to a larger display like a TV or Projector) and has since been the standard for transmitting content through wireless connections between displays using Wi-Fi as the transmission vehicle. The MediaTek UltraCast has extended the Miracast technology to support 4K display. The Ultracast is the first chipset-enabled streaming technology on the market.<\/p>\n
4K refers to a horizontal resolution on the order of 4,000 pixels and vertical resolution on the order of 2,000 pixels (i.e 4096×2160). This offers higher resolution (and better display quality) compared to the Quad HD (3840×2160). UltraCast uses MediaTek\u2019s advanced video smoothing algorithm, preserving picture quality while reducing latency between devices.<\/p>\n
According to Mediatek, UltraCast will be available on MediaTek Helio series smartphone chipsets and MediaTek 4K Ultra HDTV chipsets.<\/p>\n
