Airtames can be found around campus in classrooms and conference rooms; they allow you to wirelessly project your screen onto either a TV or projector.
In order to utilize them, you need the Airtame app or Airplay (if you're on a Mac or iPad). If you're using a MIAD-owned machine, you already have the app.
Using the Airtame App
- Open the Airtame app
- Depending what network you're on, a list may auto-populate of available rooms
- You can also type the IP address of the room you're in, if you don't want to go through the list
- In the screenshot above, the example IP address is 127.0.0.1 - this will differ for each room you're in
- If your list pre-populated, select your room number or name
- In the example, Room Name is what you're looking for
- Your list will look like the following:
- Click Share screen
- A numeric PIN will be shown on the TV/projector
- Enter that PIN into your app
- You can also type the IP address of the room you're in, if you don't want to go through the list
- Your screen should now appear on the TV or projector
Using Airplay
- Click the Airplay icon in the top bar
- If you don't see it, go to the Apple icon (top-left corner) > System Preferences > Displays > select "Show mirroring options in the menu bar when available."
- Select the name of the room you're in from the list
- To use Airtame as a second display, click in the menu bar, then select "Use as a Separate Display"
- Your screen should now be projecting
- To stop sharing your screen, click back in the menu bar and select "Turn Airplay Off"
