Net TV Gets Focused
Electronic News, July 12, 1999 by Peter Brown
Focus Enhancements Inc. has started development for an interface chip for Internet set-top boxes (STBs) and low-cost PCs that is designed to combine Internet connectivity with television display. The chip will work with the 810 chipset from Intel Corp. to bring 3D graphics as well as television to PCs and STBs.
Focus' chip, dubbed the I-net TV chip, will have built-in interfaces to allow standard TV broadcasts or a DVD movie to be switched through the chip for high video quality. Focus plans to sample the chip in the third quarter and production will follow in 2000. Focus said it would sell the chip in 500,000 quantities per year at $5 and less.
