The ability to transmit a computer’s display to a television enables users to view content from their computer on a larger screen. This process involves replicating the computer’s display output on the television, effectively turning the television into an extension of the computer’s monitor. For instance, a user might display a presentation, stream a movie, or share photos from their computer onto a television screen for a more collaborative or immersive viewing experience.
This capability provides enhanced accessibility and convenience for various applications. It facilitates group viewing of content, simplifies presentations in professional settings, and offers an alternative to smaller computer displays for entertainment. The underlying technology has evolved from wired connections to wireless protocols, offering increased flexibility and ease of use over time.
