Wireless HDMI - Does It Suck?

so here's something that I've been wanting to test and own for a long period of time but I just never pulled the trigger on actually ordering one of these it's called the Nereus Ares Pro and what it is is a wireless hdmi transmitter and receiver so what this means is you could take any source any video source and send that video signal to a display off in the distance as you can see on the front of the box I mean they are even showing a drone here whatever video signal you want to send even from a production perspective like the various angles that we shoot for this show you could send to a display for monitoring but this one caught my attention above and beyond the other stuff that's on the market because they claim watch on HD TV with no latency at 1080p now you know why no latency is important because a lot of people are gonna want to use something like this for gaming you can imagine you've got a console or something far away from a display or just the way you have your stuff wired up for cable management now finally wireless hdmi supposedly as far as this company's concerned is capable of getting there without a wire so I got a few tips from people on Twitter saying it Lou you gotta try this out I'm gonna test this out today with a Nintendo switch and a display that's about how many feet away is that over there Jack that's like 40 feet 30 feet as they say in the Box this is the pro version which has a hundred feet apparently of clear wireless transmission so Nintendo switch in the dock I will send the signal all the way over there and we'll see if it actually works or will see if they have overstepped over over step or does the Nereus Ares pro suck so since the transmitter receiver power adapter five foot HDMI cable and so on what do they show here so obviously this will work with any video source you can see they've got a laptop hooked up play high-definition video games from your desktop PC laptop ps4 Xbox one or well anything really zero latency they sing zero let's crack this open gonna need a knife I just peeled the tape anyway look at that unbox therapy and none of the professional unboxing equipment you would expect I just peeled the tape off alright don't try that at home plug it into the wall plug it into the display plug the transmitter into an HDMI port that's it look at this slick little guy so this looks like the receiver I believe this will sit near the location of your TV it's got an HDMI output on it you can also wall mount it some LED indicators as well to let you know if you're linked up this model comes with a super-slim transmitter so this guy here as you can see goes into any HDMI port it has also a mini USB on it this entire package would be very easy to travel with in the past I've wanted to like watch a UFC fight on a projector but maybe I don't have the source that I want going to wherever the projector is mounted now boom you just as long as this guy is down on ground level whatever you want to stream from click that baby in could be an Apple TV could be you know the deal in HDMI cable this is to go from the receiver to the display a nice right angle adapter a mini USB cable which is gonna power up the transmitter so let's get this thing hooked up and see what it does alright so I have the Nintendo switch in the dock and I've got the HDMI going out to the transmitter now something to mention because of the way the dock is set up I had to use a little HDMI adapter just to extend it a little bit it's now going into the transmitter there was a blinking light on the front of the transmitter which is now solid it's solidly lit up which i think means that it has linked itself to the receiver on the TV all the way over there so Jack's gonna swing right now and as we mentioned before this TV is somewhere between 30 and 40 feet away from where I'm sitting right now so I got the pro controller the docked Nintendo switch I'm gonna power it up right now Oh Zelda oh my I don't think there's any latency I'm not sensing any I think they weren't lying man let's go for a little Glide real quick here Oh baby totally playable honestly I don't notice any kind of an input delay beyond playing the game normally and I've been playing this game a lot recently this is a really cool madness when you see this happen it's a very magical moment am I gonna have enough stamina to get to the top probably not maybe I've been mostly upgrading stamina made it barely here we go that's legit they weren't lying I mean they said zero latency there's zero latency the question of the video wireless hdmi does it suck no not anymore keep in mind it's 1080p so you're getting full res like I said you want to go to a different display just grab this thing and move that there's a bad guy right there yeah how you like that look you can use his own arm to beat them up check these guys out it's the real deal man it's the real deal it's magical what magic is this right Tom there he is there he is [Music]
