  • Patent number: 9749604
    Abstract: Described are a method and device for multi-source control of an intelligent miniature projector. With the method, connection of intelligent miniature projector equipment with multiple UEs is established; after a projection request sent by a first UE is received, when it is detected that played content of a second UE is being projected, a switching confirmation prompt is sent to the second UE; and after the second UE's consent for switching is received, the current projection process is stopped, a response to the projection request of the first UE is made, and played content of the first UE is projected.
