Abstract: In a first device including a processor and a memory in communication with the processor, the memory includes executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to control the first device to perform functions of receiving, from a second device via a signal connection, a request to project visual content from the second device, the first device being in a locked state to restrict access to the first device that requires valid authentication to transition from the locked state to an unlocked state; determining that the second device has a permission to project the visual content to the first device; receiving, from the second device via the signal connection, data for projecting the visual content to the first device; and based on the received data, displaying, on a display, the visual content.

Abstract: Techniques for projection via a device are described. According to various implementations, techniques described herein enable a locked host device to output data projected from another device while the host device remains in a locked state. In at least some implementations, device context for a host device (locked or unlocked) can be considered in determining whether to broadcast availability to receive projected content.
