With the AirProjector and a PC equipped with a standard wireless PC card, presenters can display sharp, real-time images from up to 300'. In addition, with the units One Shot Capture feature, presenters can discreetly reference other material on their PCs while students are others see only a screen shot from the presentation. Finally, the AirProjector, which supports WEP security with up to 128-bit encryption capability, encrypts presentations so others can't steal the signal.
