Cast

The Cast module enables you to seamlessly share live screens from local or remote computers directly into your Lygos environment. Whether you are presenting a slide deck in a conference room or mirroring critical software dashboards across a collaborative video wall, this tool allows users to easily broadcast their entire desktop or specific browser tabs. Operating on a secure, server based connection, it features intuitive controls to select, refresh, and manage multiple castable devices, ensuring your team can instantly share exactly what they are seeing in real-time.
