Google Cast screen mirroring – How to use Google Cast screen mirroring? How does the Bijie Multimedia Collaboration System use the Google Cast screen casting protocol?

As one of the three major screen mirroring protocol standards (in addition to AirPlay and Miracast), Google Cast has attracted increasing attention from users, especially those who frequently use Google Chrome and prefer the function of sharing screens directly through the browser’s built-in screen mirroring, without the need to install specialized screen mirroring software. As a leading provider of multimedia collaboration solutions, Bijie Network has taken the lead in implementing Google Cast protocol support in enterprise level multimedia collaboration systems.

Google Cast supports mirror mirroring or Chrome browser for screen mirroring. When using the Bijie Multimedia Collaboration System for wireless screen mirroring, Google mobile terminals can use the mirror mirroring function, while mobile terminals of other systems can use Chrome browser for screen mirroring.

Below, we will introduce the operation steps for Google Cast screen casting using BJ80 on each terminal:

As an important feature of Google’s multi screen interaction, Google Cast originally required users to only use it on Google TV and Google TV sticks, and the usage scenarios were very limited. After the completion of the Google Cast upgrade of the Bijie Multimedia Collaboration System, it will bring a new selection of screen projection devices to the vast user base of Chrome browser and Chromebook, providing users with a more convenient, rich, and flexible multi screen interactive user experience.
