It also makes Full HD screen sharing possible.
Intel has introduced a brand new software application known as Thunderbolt Share, which will transform the experience of controlling two or more personal computers into one that is more streamlined. Through its interface, it will enable you to synchronize files between personal computers (PCs), as well as view the folders of different machines, enabling you to create customized documents, photos, and other file kinds by dragging and dropping them. When you and a colleague are transferring exceptionally large files, such as raw images or films that have not been edited, this ensures that collaborations are simple and straightforward. The application also allows you to transfer data from an older personal computer to a newer one, which eliminates the need for you to make use of an external drive in order to facilitate the move.
In terms of screen sharing, Intel asserts that the software is able to preserve the resolution of the source computer without requiring any compression, provided that the maximum specifications are limited to Full HD at a frame rate of up to 60 frames per second. As a result of the Thunderbolt technology’s high bandwidth and low latency, the mouse pointer and keyboard continue to function in a seamless and responsive manner when moving between different personal computers.
The firm has announced that it will be licensing Thunderbolt Share to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) as a value-added feature for their forthcoming personal computers and accessories. To be able to utilize it, you will need to have a Windows computer that is equipped with either a Thunderbolt 4 or a Thunderbolt 5 connection, and these machines must either be physically connected to one another using a Thunderbolt cable or connected to the same Thunderbolt dock or monitor. A number of different manufacturers, such as Lenovo, Acer, MSI, Razer, Kensington, and Belkin, will be responsible for the production of the first devices that are capable of supporting the application. These devices will be made available in the second half of the year 2024.
