Alliance Raises Curtain on Wi-Fi 7

“Novel generative AI applications that require high throughput will benefit from Wi-Fi 7’s fast speeds,” added Kristen Hanich, an analyst at Parks Associates, a market research and consulting company specializing in consumer technology products, in Dallas.

“We’re also seeing an increasing number of businesses adopt internet of things [IoT] devices and use cases, including machine vision through video cameras,” she told TechNewsWorld. “These businesses need CPE capable of handling all of these simultaneous connections.”

“The AR/VR market has been slow to take off, but there is an opportunity with faster speeds allowing for greater performance in households with multiple headsets,” she continued. “With the Apple Vision Pro headset launching in early February, we also expect to see more attention to this market.”
