However, at a conference we were able to play with Apple TV with an HDMI projector. That was very powerful difference, since we could walk around with the iPad, not tethered. That is what I recommend and will be implementing in the fall.Jenni Swanson Voorheeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11444468697306417841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4100139074221586044.post-83407470570210256752012-01-29T03:52:21.619-05:002012-01-29T03:52:21.619-05:00Hi Jenni,

The actual beamer is an Epson XVGA.<br />As far as I have understood I need Apple Tv and a new beamer with HDMI. Am I correct? <br />How good is your experience so far? Any suggestion?<br />Thank you,<br />GiorgioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4100139074221586044.post-76491450902391113202011-07-25T16:04:19.212-04:002011-07-25T16:04:19.212-04:00Who are you Jay?

They make it possble to project the image, but the user must operate the website, etc. through the iPad rather than using touch on the SmartBoard. I have been using it when I've demonstrated the iPad in all our training sessions.Jenni Swanson Voorheesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4100139074221586044.post-20664112742540354062011-07-19T20:59:26.634-04:002011-07-19T20:59:26.634-04:00I was thinking about this as well so your question...I was thinking about this as well so your question prompted me to do some research. The iPad is capable of outputting what's on the screen ( called mirroring ) through the dock connector on the bottom. You have to buy an adaptor ( <a href="http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC552ZM/B" rel="nofollow"> $29 here at the apple store </a> ) to plug it into the monitor cable that sends the input to the projector. This will only project the iPads screen onto the SMARTBoard. You will not be able to interact with the iPad from the SMARTBoard screen. <a href="https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2770983?start=0&tstart=0%22" rel="nofollow"> Unfortunately, there is no way to have the SMARTBoard communicate directly with the iPad </a>.<br /><br />The cable connect method would still be very useful.
