WePresent is a wireless presentation device installed in classrooms. It allows a presenter to wirelessly share content to the projector in the classroom without being bound to the podium. The WePresent allows a user to connect their device (iPhone, Android, MacBook, PC) to the WePresent’s wireless network. Then using either MirrorOp or AirPlay, the users can have the projector mirror their device.

Up to four users may project at the same time via the MirrorOp application. MirrorOp is a free download from your device’s app store or from MirrorOp’s website.
