Examples include an electronic visual display integrated as part of a keyboard, or digital photo frames that can receive information wirelessly; wireless devices are connected to a personal computer through wireless network technologies, including Bluetooth and Wi-Fi; manufacturers may also produce detachable displays.[7][11] Sideshow devices display various types of information, such as contacts, calendar appointments, e-mail, maps, RSS feeds, and can serve as indicators for system information such as battery life and wireless network strength.[7][11] Microsoft has published documentation which suggests additional uses for SideShow devices, such as the ability to transmit information and notifications received from a computer across televisions and set-top boxes,[18] and the ability to serve as a second screen for PC games and their content (e.g., character statistics or maps) and to enable new multitasking scenarios during gameplay.[19] SideShow features integration with the Windows desktop gadget feature of Windows Vista and Windows 7, which enables a single gadget to operate simultaneously on a user's desktop while supplying data across devices.[2] SideShow uses the Windows Portable Devices infrastructure to communicate with devices;[11] when viewed as a portable device in File Explorer, users can also adjust and interact with the files included as part of auxiliary displays.[20] Auxiliary displays appear in Device Manager and integrate with Windows Vista's Function Discovery technology.[11] Development platformA gadget developed for SideShow is written by programming for the Windows SideShow Platform application programming interface—a native code COM-based API introduced in Windows Vista.[21] A managed API for .NET Framework developers was also released by Microsoft, and includes development templates for Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008. To aid in the development of gadgets, Microsoft released a SideShow simulator that emulates the functionality of a SideShow-compatible device, thereby allowing developers to test the appearance and functionality of gadgets without requiring physical hardware.[22][23] Devices for Windows SideShow have different hardware traits than devices such as mobile phones or PDAs. The former have their own processor; they need not rely solely on a connection to a computer for processing tasks. There are online and offline abilities that allow the device to run larger components on the connected computer. The following list contains typical device display types and technologies.
Hardware-specific, native applications that provide rich-media experiences like audio and video playback that can be accessed through the SideShow user interface require the SDK from the specific platform vendor. For example, Nvidia provides the Preface platform that includes abilities like MP3, AAC, MPEG-4 encode-decode and other digital media formats.[24] Market acceptanceFew OEMs accepted SideShow. In 2007, Asus announced the W5Fe, a laptop with a full-color, 2.8-inch SideShow display on the front cover.[25] In 2006, after being featured at WinHEC, the 7-inch and 10-inch "Momento" digital photo frames were released by their developer, A Living Picture,[26] and provided Sideshow functionality over WiFi. They were subsequently marketed by i-mate along with its Momento Live picture service,[27] before being shut down in 2009.[28] In October 2007, Dell released the XPS 420,[29] which included a Sideshow device on the top front of the machine.[30] It was not widely promoted, found little use[31] and was quietly dropped when the XPS 430 came out a year later.[32] On February 1, 2010, Ikanos Consulting announced Threemote, a suite of Windows SideShow-compatible products for embedded platforms including Windows Mobile, Google Android, and Kopin Golden-i.[33] Threemote appears unsupported and had been unavailable from the Android Market for some time {{As of|2011|9|lc=on}}, nor was it available for Windows Mobile. In a blog posting in April 2010, the technical director of Ikanos consulting said that Sideshow was not dead and Threemote was "bubbling along".[34] On February 7, 2012, Chris James released "MS Sideshow Device",[35] an implementation of a Windows Sideshow device for Google Android. Microsoft discontinued the Sideshow gallery. A duplication of the sideshow gallery content is available at Windows Sidebar Gadget Gallery.[36] With the introduction of Windows 8.1, Microsoft discontinued the technology and removed support for SideShow devices from the operating system.[37] See also
