Company Overview
As consumers demand greater mobility, notebook shipments surpassed desktop shipments in 2009. While mobile computing platforms offer the luxury of taking your PC with you, desktops still offer numerous advantages, namely better performance and more expansion and upgrade and configuration options. As a result, many users end up with two computing platforms: a mobile computing platform when "on the go" and a desktop when at home or in the office.
Founded in March 2007, by a core team of executives and engineers from Intel's Wi-Fi Centrino® group, Wilocity is developing next-generation 60 GHz multi-gigabit wireless chipsets for both the mobile computing platform and peripheral markets that will enable mobile device manufacturers to deliver the thin and light platforms that consumers want without sacrificing the performance and functionality that consumers need. Based on the Wireless Gigabit Alliance (WiGig) specification, Wilocity's wPCIe™ technology will enable truly multi-gigabit wireless for a wide range of applications from I/O to networking to video.
