Now that tablets deliver enough processing power to support most business applications, users are often choosing to present from their tablets,” said Vincent Hung, Senior Manager of Product Marketing for ViewSonic. “Additionally, as individuals experience wireless streaming capabilities with devices like Google’s Chromecast and Apple TV in their everyday personal lives, we anticipate that they will look for a natural extension of this benefit in their professional work environment as well. That’s why we developed the WPG-370.”

Multiple connectivity options such as HDMI® and optical audio make connecting to any display effortless, while convenient features like PC-less media streaming work directly from a USB thumb drive. This presentation gateway also enables users to wirelessly stream full HD 1080p video to any projector or display, when using an Intel WiDi laptop3, UltrabookTM, smartphone or tablet. Furthermore, the WPG-370 is Wi-Fi® Miracast-ready and supports direct content streaming to the gateway from Android and iOS smartphones and tablets with the iMediaShare mobile app4. With this third-party app, users can stream multimedia files such as videos and images for wireless sharing. Paired with 802.11a/b/g/n and the latest WPA2/WPA wireless encryption, the WPG-370 is ideal for practically any commercial environment.
