How can I mirror my iPad display wirelessly?

I am looking to display my iPad screen wirelessly to an external display to demo applications. I found this video showing exactly what I want to do with an iPhone but no explanation as to what the hardware dongle used was.

The main thing is that there isn't a wire tethering the user to the external display.

Solution 1:

This is possible using iOS 5 and an Apple TV using AirPlay.

This only works with iPhone 4S and iPad 2 and all video and sound are mirrored wirelessly to any TV that is connected via HDMI downstream from the Apple TV. You do need a wireless network for the two devices to communicate.

Just double-click the Home button, swipe all the way to the right, and select AirPlay Mirroring.

Solution 2:

Edited to clarify: On the iPad 1, unfortunately there's no way to mirror the display without jailbreaking. Even the new Airplay iOS feature only allows the streaming of things specifically sent to the stream by an app, much like the hardware iPad video-out.

Solution 3:

Jailbreak, then install Veency.

Solution 4:

I'm curious to find out which of these devices are actually certified by Apple and has a Made for iPhone/iPad stamp. I've yet to jailbreak my iPad so it's not convenient for me to use a product that will require me to download additional software or hack my iPad.

It seems out of these solutions, only the Air Shuttle from CyWee is "the first and only MFi-certified accessory that enables real-time audio and video transmission from an iPod, iPhone, or iPad." Found this on their site at: http://cywee.com/products/wireless/air-shuttle/

Solution 5:

What you're looking for is in the making, it just isn't here yet.

Supposedly there's a gaming peripherals company out of the UK named Blaze that will be coming out sometime this April with a wireless TV-out setup that will mirror what's on an iPad screen.
