Google Cast: Streaming Screen Casting Solution
The Google Cast solution focuses on targeted streaming media delivery and is compatible with Google ecosystem devices. Android phones, Chromebooks, or Chrome browsers with the Cast extension can easily push content such as audio and video, web pages, and documents to large screens. Unlike full-screen mirroring, it offers greater flexibility by casting only selected content, making it suitable for office, home, and teaching scenarios.
Compatibility with Google Ecosystem, Smooth Connection
Most Chromebooks and Android devices natively support the Cast function, eliminating the need to install complex additional software.
- Open an app with the Cast icon (such as YouTube or Google Drive).
- Tap the “Cast” icon—you will automatically detect receiving devices on the same network.
- Select the target device to connect, which takes approximately 2 seconds to complete.
The operation is as simple as connecting a phone to WiFi. For computers, it’s even more convenient: install the Cast extension on the Chrome browser, and you can directly push online documents or demo videos from web pages to the large screen with a click of the extension—no format conversion or file transfer required.
Targeted Streaming Without Lag, More Convenient Usage
Unlike full-screen mirroring, Google Cast only pushes the content you select:
- After pushing a TV show from your phone to the TV, you can exit the app to check messages or reply to emails—this will not interrupt the TV playback at all.
- When pushing a meeting plan from your computer to the large screen, switching to other pages in the background will not expose your desktop, ensuring privacy protection.
It supports 1080P high-definition transmission, and some devices even support 4K. When casting online course videos, the 画面 remains delicate with synchronized audio and video—no “frozen 画面 or out-of-sync audio” issues. When pushing documents, small text in spreadsheets and lines in charts are also clear, so you don’t need to lean close to the screen to explain details.
Adaptable to Multiple Scenarios, High Practicality
- Office Scenarios: During remote meetings, a Chromebook can push its shared screen to the meeting screen, ensuring all participants have a clear view. When you need to temporarily present an industry report on a web page, just click the Cast extension in the Chrome browser to push it—no need to download or save the file, so the presentation flow remains uninterrupted.
- Home Scenarios: Push Bilibili videos or NetEase Cloud Music from your phone to the living room TV for a more immersive experience of watching shows or listening to music. Family members can use their own devices to select content and take turns pushing it to the TV—no need to fight over the remote control, and no need to switch between devices repeatedly to change content.
- Teaching Scenarios: Teachers can use an Android tablet to push online teaching videos to the classroom’s large screen while taking key notes on the tablet—operation and teaching can be carried out simultaneously without delay. Students can push their online assignments to the main screen for the whole class to review and comment on, encouraging more active sharing.
The receiving device can remember frequently used devices and will automatically pop up a reminder to cast the next time you open the app. Administrators can check the device connection status through the backend and set available casting time periods—no need for dedicated personnel to be on-site for maintenance. For streaming media casting, Google Cast is an excellent choice, and it works even more smoothly when paired with Google ecosystem devices.
