MH2H: View Your System’s Content on Your Phone or Friend’s TV

NTT DoCoMo Inc has come up with mobile home to home technology, MH2H, that would let you view the files stored on your PC on the television at your friend’s place. MH2H technology will enable you to display media files once it is connected to any medium, such as a mobile phone or camera, which has a wireless LAN function.
MH2H uses Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) technology which allows you to share files using a home network such as LAN. MH2H is the ‘new and improved’ version of the Pocket U service that NTT DoCoMo currently provides, where content stored on the system can be viewed on the mobile phone even while the user is not at home. In this case, the phone works similar to a virtual DLNA server and the IP address of the user’s PC would be sent to the phone which has been enabled with wireless LAN function to act as the digital media player for the DLNA. Using the mobile phone network, the phone would then connect to the PC and establish the correspondence.
If you are worried that people may manipulate this service to connect to the network, DoCoMo has the answer for you. No one can watch content without your permission since your phone would continue to check if a connection has been established with the network.
