Wi-Wi: think Wi-Fi, but for time

Duration: 09:15

1 nanosecond wireless sync, 20 picosecond jitter, and wireless black burst!

Huge thanks to Meinberg and Wi-Wi STAMP for letting me talk to them at NAB this year!

(This video was not paid for in any way, I just found this neat demo at NAB and wanted to share!)
