LAirPlay & AirServer
• AirPlay is a built in feature on the iPad. It lets you wirelessly stream what is on your iOS device.
• AirServer is a powerful application that enables you to stream or mirror your iPad or iPhone
on your Mac/PC.
• You can walk around the room with no cords attached and interact with students!
• You can swipe left to see even older apps, or swipe right to get a little control panel.
• On the left is the orientation lock/unlock button, and there's also easy access to brightness and iPod controls.
• This will come in handy when using the document camera to display your iPad on you projector. Dim your screen brightness to reduce blur on the document camera.
