With the increasing number of audio-visual gadgets in our living rooms that require HDMI to be seen to best effect, Fujitsu Japan has announced a hardware solution to help keep costs down.


The company’s new chip is the first in the world to handle 4 HDMI Ports simultaneosly using only one chunk of memory. Although the technical details are a little obscure, the end result will be TV sets that can accommodate more HDMI-connected devices at lower cost.


Current HDMI ports each require their own dedicated memory, which makes their manufacture more expensive than Fujitsu’s package. Naturally, keeping the cost of HDMI- ready TV sets down leaves a little over to buy more game consoles, Blu-ray recorders and the like, so everybody wins in the end, eh?
