Airtame Crowdfunds to Create Wireless HDMI for Everyone

Present without a ProjectorCrowdfunding on Indiegogo, this team of five young entrepreneurs from Denmark have created a small device to allow you to stream any content from your computer to TV – wirelessly.  Frustrated with the jumble of cables and adapters necessary to truly use a TV as a second screen Airtame has finally solved with dilemma.  They just need a bit more funding to bring their working prototype to mass production.  To achieve this task they have set a goal of raising $160,000 on Indiegogo and they quickly zoomed to over $97,000 in their first few days with over 1000 backers supporting this campaign.

Airtame at 50 percent“Our approach has been clear from the beginning: We want to make a wireless HDMI cable,” says co- founder Brian Kyed.  “We believe that everyone should be able to connect to the TV in the living room or the projector in the conference room – wirelessly,” says Brian and continues, “Therefore AIRTAME works with both Mac, Windows and Linux – so no one is left to use screen cables anymore.”

Anyone who has ever struggled with a presentation because of missing adapters or cables; Or anyone who just wanted to share their screen with a group of people – will quickly see the practicality in this device.

Plug Airtame into your TV and start streaming both images and sound from your computer – without the use of any cables. Airtame uses Wi-Fi, therefore you don’t need to plug anything into your computer. All you need to do is install the Airtame application.   Also – instead of patenting the technology Airtame has made everything open source.

Airtame TeamThey are actively looking into smartphone/tablet support and it’s on their roadmap.   While the computer app is ready, an iOS/Android app is not for the initial release but they hope they can have something out around the end of Q2 2014.
Airtame is  Copenhagen based startup founded in July 2013 – but have been coding on the project since 2011.
