Airbeam TV 23 May 2016Available immediately in the Mac App Store, the Mirror for Samsung TV application is claimed to be the only application available worldwide with the capability to wirelessly mirror the screen of a Mac computer directly on any Samsung Smart TV, without the need for any additional hardware.

AirBeamTV added that such functionality was only available to Mac users after they bought an AppleTV with AirPlay technology and connected it to their TV, or using an HDMI cable to connect their Mac to the TV.

“After launching the application on the Mac, the app will scan your local network for a Samsung Smart TV," explained Demid Borodin, AirBeamTV co-founder and director of technology. “When your TV is found, with a click of a button, the screen of your Mac is mirrored on TV. You can even choose whether you would like the audio of your Mac to be transferred to your TV as well.”

AirBeamTV is also working on support for additional TV brands including Sony, Philips, Panasonic and LG. However, launch dates for latter have not been confirmed as yet.
