Wireless Display Projection

Description

Many OHIO classrooms and meeting spaces let you use Wi-Fi to send video and audio from a laptop or mobile device to the room's flat panel or projector. If a display supports wireless projection, connection instructions will appear on the unit's start-up screen when you turn it on.
