What is WiDi?

WiDi (Wireless Display) is a proprietary wireless display technology developed by Intel. It allows users to wirelessly stream high definition video and audio from their WiDi-enabled laptops, ultrabooks, or small form factor PCs to compatible displays and projectors including HDTVs, monitors, and projectors.

WiDi utilizes standard Wi-Fi networks to establish a direct peer-to-peer connection between the WiDi-enabled computer and display device, allowing users to untether from cables and share their presentations or media content on a big screen wirelessly. It is based on the Miracast wireless display standard and uses WPA2 encryption and Protected Content Resolution technology for secure streaming.

Some of the benefits of WiDi include easy setup and the ability to stream full 1080p HD video and 5.1 surround sound audio smoothly and with low latency across existing Wi-Fi networks. Intel has integrated WiDi in many of its processors allowing thin and light laptops and SFF PCs to eliminate HDMI and VGA ports relying solely on WiDi for screen mirroring capabilities.

Overall, WiDi provides an easy and wireless way to stream content to displays for meetings, presentations, and entertainment without dealing with cables or dongles. It is compatible with hundreds of certified adapters and TVs and projectors with integrated WiDi.
