Abstract
In a computing device configured to be connected to a wireless network, a method of projecting an image via a projection device over the wireless network, is provided, wherein the projection device is connected to the wireless network via an image-rendering device configured to receive data over the wireless network. The method includes detecting the image-rendering device over the wireless network, presenting a display identifying the image-rendering device to a user, receiving selection of the image-rendering device by the user and sending data representing the image from the computing device to the image-rendering device over the wireless network for projection by the projection device.
Claims17
A projection display system, comprising:
- a projection device;
- an image-rendering apparatus integrated within the projection device;
- and
- a wireless receiver integrated within the projection device and operatively coupled with the image-rendering apparatus, wherein the wireless receiver is configured to receive video image data wirelessly from a remote computer via a wireless network, the video image data defining a video image, and wherein the image-rendering apparatus is configured to render the video image data as a video image for projection by the projection device.
An image display system comprising:
- an image-rendering device including an image receiver adapted to alternatively receive a first interchangeable data transfer device and a second interchangeable data transfer device, wherein each interchangeable data transfer device is adapted to enable transfer of an image to the image-rendering device, wherein the first interchangeable data transfer device includes a wireless receiver for wirelessly receiving video image data;
- and
- a processor configured to automatically transmit the image from the image receiver to the image display system for display.
An image display device, comprising:
- an image projection engine for projecting images;
- an image-rendering device including a wireless receiver adapted to link the image-rendering device to a wireless network, the wireless receiver further adapted to receive an image from a computer linked to the wireless network;
- and
- a processor configured to automatically transmit the image from the wireless receiver to the image projection engine for display.
