Well. Kinda. You still have to plug in two cables. This would allow to go down to one single cable powering the laptop and sending signals to the screen.
Though, honestly, I don't trust USB to be a good protocol for transmitting a high bandwidth and very lie latency signal with it's inherently polling architecture.
- unwiredben 12y agoIsn't that the whole point of USB's isochronous transfer mode, where a peripheral schedules part of the total USB bandwidth budget for a regular transfer of data? USB 3.1's got similar bandwidth to Thunderbolt and HDMI 1.3, so that could work for many video applications, although not for uncompressed 4K/60Hz, although VESA Display Stream Compression could allow it to work.
