Roku
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Roku, founded in October 2002, is a privately held Palo Alto based consumer electronics firm which specialises in home digital media products. Their current product line-up includes the Roku SoundBridge, a network music player, the Roku PhotoBridge HD, a high-def media player for viewing photos on a high-definition or standard-definition television display, and the SoundBridge Radio, a network music player with high-quality built in speakers and subwoofer, AM-FM receiver, volume-ramping alarm clock, preset buttons, SD slot and headphone jack.
Roku's audio products do not use internal storage but rely on Wi-Fi or Ethernet to stream digital audio over a network, either from Internet radio or a computer attached to the same network.
The company was founded by ReplayTV founder Anthony Wood. 'Roku' means 'six' in Japanese, a reference to the six companies Wood has launched.
