With Wireless USB the camera can be placed on a shelf, away from the desk or
laptop, and be wirelessly accessed for downloading photos. In addition, Wireless
USB can be used for remote shooting. DSLR cameras like Canon or Nikon are
supplied with software that allows shooting remotely from the PC (see image on
right). The limitation of this scenario with standard USB is the short USB cable
connecting the PC to the camera.
By connecting the camera to the device adapter, shooting and photo transfer
can be done wirelessly, with the PC placed up to 10 meters from the camera.
To test this with Wireless USB, a Canon EOS KissX2/ 450D camera was placed on
a tripod in one side of a meeting room, connected to a device adapter. A laptop
with the PC adapter was then used in the other side of the room to wirelessly
take photos and instantly view the photo on the PC.
Viewing photos wirelessly is instant, without any noticeable difference between
wired and wireless. Downloading larger data chunks (200 MB) took 120 seconds
with a wireless connection and 98 seconds with a wired connection (translating
to 81% when comparing wireless data throughput to wired).
