Help Hook up zoom to projector?

doctajay · Mar 3, 2011

I want to hook up my xoom to a projector like the ipad can be hooked up to one in order to display powerpoint slides. Do you guys think this is possible? most projectors don't have hdmi ports so I would need a VGA adaptor.

HDMI is digital. VGA is analog. there may be an analog <-> HDMI converter box. thats what you would need.

As a teacher, I use my wireless projector constantly. I was wondering how to use my wireless projector with my Xoom. Frustratingly, I can't find any information on it. I found a way for an iPad to do it. Is this possible for Android? Anyone?

Connect your VGA Wireless Projector to Your iPad

You will probably need this...

Amazon.com: Fosmon HDMI to Micro HDMI Cable (5 Feet): Electronics

And this...

Amazon.com: HDMI Coupler (Female to Female): Electronics

I have no idea if it will work but in theory it should.

I was wanting to do so wirelessly. I currently use EMP Wireless Projector for my laptop to connect. I wish Epson would get on board and create apps/software for tablets to connect. Would make it much easier.

I nag them all the time to do it when I see Epson at the trade shows. We have an Epson projector in every classroom here. Works great with our Windows machines but nada with iPads or Androids.

I wonder if I bought a USB to Bluetooth dongle for my Epson Wireless projector if it would pair with my Xoom via Bluetooth.

I have a similar request for my k1 ideapad. I do a lot of presentations and was hoping to be able to wirelessly connect to a digital projector with my tablet. Would make life a lot easier. Any ideas?

I hooked up my ASUS Transformer Tablet to my Epson EX5210 LCD projector via the HDMI port (you need a mini HDMI connector for the Tablet side). I works absolutely great!

I'm definitely keeping my eyes peeled for a Bluetooth projector hook-up, as it would allow to dump yet another cable. I'm really tempted to go buy a Bluetooth-to-USB adapter and see if I can get the Tablet to pump video, or at least slide shows out that way.
