Miracast is utilised in many devices and is used or branded under various names by different manufacturers, including Smart View (by Samsung), [3] [4] SmartShare (by LG), screen mirroring (by Sony), Cast (in Windows 11) and Connect (in Windows 10), wireless display and screen casting.
The technology goes back to 1973 with Harvey C. Nathanson's (inventor of MEMS c. 1965) use of millions of microscopically small moving mirrors to create a video display of the type now found in digital projectors. [1] The project at Texas Instrument's began as the deformable mirror device in 1977 using micromechanical analog light modulators.
Many overhead projectors are used with a flat-panel LCD which, when used this way, is referred to as a spatial light modulator or SLM. Data projectors are often based on some form of SLM in a projection path. An LCD is a transmissive SLM, whereas other technologies such as Texas Instrument's DLP are reflective SLMs. Not all projectors use SLMs ...
scrcpy (short for "screen copy") is a free and open-source screen mirroring application that allows control of an Android device from a desktop computer. [2] The software is developed by Genymobile SAS, a company which develops Android emulator Genymotion. [3] The application primarily uses the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) via a USB connection to ...
An overhead projector works on the same principle as a slide projector, in which a focusing lens projects light from an illuminated slide onto a projection screen where a real image is formed. However some differences are necessitated by the much larger size of the transparencies used (generally the size of a printed page), and the requirement ...
An overhead projector projecting onto a pull-down screen. Pull-down screens (also known as manual wall screens) are often used in spaces where a permanently installed screen would require too much space. These commonly use painted fabric that is rolled in the screen case when not used, making them less obtrusive when the screen is not in use.
In DLP projectors, the image is created by microscopically small mirrors laid out in a matrix on a semiconductor chip, known as a digital micromirror device (DMD). These mirrors are so small that DMD pixel pitch may be 5.4 μm or less. [2] Each mirror represents one or more pixels in the projected image.
A video projector is an image projector that receives a video signal and projects the corresponding image onto a projection screen using a lens system. Video projectors use a very bright ultra-high-performance lamp (a special mercury arc lamp ), Xenon arc lamp , metal halide lamp , LED or solid state blue, RB, RGB or fiber-optic lasers to ...
