Availability: InStock

Overview

Wireless screen sharing software for BenQ Boards that sends laptop, tablet and phone screens to the board without cables or app installs on most devices. Pro and Master series boards can display up to nine shared screens in split view, and the host controls who shares and who annotates. A practical fit for Doha schools, universities and government training rooms where staff and students bring mixed devices.

Wireless sharing from the devices people already carry

BenQ InstaShare 2 is wireless screen sharing software built for BenQ Boards. A teacher, presenter or student can send the screen of a laptop, tablet or smartphone to the board without a cable, so the person presenting is not tied to the front of the room. It suits Qatari classrooms and meeting rooms where staff and learners arrive with a mix of Windows, Apple, Android and Chromebook devices.

Connection is designed to be quick. Phones and tablets can share with a single tap using NFC, which connects the device to the board and starts sharing automatically. Apple and Windows devices, Chromebooks and Chrome browsers can cast natively, so in most cases users do not need to download an app. InstaShare 2 supports Windows, Android, macOS, iOS, iPadOS and ChromeOS, which covers the main platforms found in mixed-device rooms.

Group work and multi-screen sharing

On Pro series and Master series boards, InstaShare 2 can split the display for up to nine screens at once. The software divides the display based on how many devices are mirrored, so each presenter gets a visible area without stopping the lesson. Turning on Floating Window mode lets the whiteboard, a browser or another application stay open beside the shared screen, and that window can be moved and resized to suit the task.

Share photos, videos, specific files or the entire screen
Touchback lets the teacher control a shared device from the board
Remote annotation lets participants mark shared content from their seats

Session control for the person running the room

The host decides which devices are mirrored, how many are shown, who can annotate and which sharing mode is in use. Those session controls also appear on the host's own device, so a facilitator can manage the room from a seat rather than walking to the board. Do Not Disturb mode blocks incoming sharing requests while the group focuses on one screen, and the AI Guardian feature stops participants from sharing media containing nudity.

Where it fits in Qatar

A private school in Al Wakrah fitting out a primary classroom might use InstaShare 2 so pupils can present project work from their tablets in turn, while the teacher controls how many screens appear. In Education City, a university training room can use split-screen mode for group presentations where each team shows its slides at the same time. A government ministry in Msheireb running a staff workshop can let attendees share laptop screens from their own seats without passing cables around the table.

What to plan before you order

Start by listing the boards that will run InstaShare 2 and checking their series. The nine-screen split is stated for Pro series and Master series, so any other board should be confirmed with the SmartRooms Qatar team before the quotation is finalised. Next, list the devices people actually bring, such as iPads, Windows laptops, Android phones and Chromebooks, and note which ones need a tap or a cast action. The SmartRooms Qatar team offers free site surveys, which help when several rooms are set up in one project.

Schools and government bodies ordering for several rooms can buy through a purchase order, an LPO or a government tender, and pay by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. Quotations are usually returned within one working day.

Questions about InstaShare 2

What is BenQ InstaShare 2 and who is it for?

BenQ InstaShare 2 is wireless screen sharing software for BenQ Boards. It lets teachers, presenters and students send the screen of a laptop, tablet or smartphone to the board without cables. It suits schools, universities and offices in Qatar where people arrive with different devices and need to share content quickly during a lesson or meeting.

How many screens can share at the same time?

On Pro series and Master series boards, InstaShare 2 supports up to nine screens at once. The software splits the display automatically according to the number of mirrored devices. A teacher with 30 pupils in a Doha classroom can let small groups present in turn while the rest of the class follows on the same board.

Do users need to install an app before they can share?

Most devices need no extra software. Apple and Windows devices, Chromebooks and Chrome browsers can cast natively. Before rollout, list the devices your staff and students use and test each type in the actual room, so you know which ones will connect without any setup.

Which operating systems and devices are supported?

InstaShare 2 works with Windows, Android, macOS, iOS, iPadOS and ChromeOS devices. This suits mixed-device rooms, such as a classroom where pupils use Android tablets while the teacher presents from a Windows laptop. Confirm the exact devices in your rooms during planning.

Can a phone connect to the board with one tap?

Yes, for devices that support NFC sharing. A single tap connects the phone or tablet to the board and shares its screen automatically, with no menus to navigate. This helps in fast lessons where a student needs to take over the display within seconds. Check that your phones support NFC before planning around it.

Can the teacher control a student's shared laptop from the board?

Yes. The touchback feature lets the person at the board control the shared device directly, so they can navigate lesson material and open new documents without walking back to the laptop. A maths teacher in an Al Sadd classroom, for example, could move between worked examples on a student's laptop from the front of the room.

What can the host control during a session?

The host can control which devices are mirrored, how many are shown, who can annotate and which screen sharing mode is used. Session controls also sit on the host's own device, so a training facilitator in Msheireb can manage the session from a seat. Do Not Disturb mode blocks incoming sharing requests while the group focuses on one screen.

Does InstaShare 2 stop inappropriate images from being shared?

The AI Guardian feature prevents participants from sharing media containing nudity on the screen. Schools and public bodies that set rules for shared content can use it alongside their own acceptable-use policy, because the feature does not replace an organisation's internal rules.

Can students share files, photos, videos or their camera feed?

Yes. Users can choose between casting an entire screen and sharing specific files, including photos, videos or their camera feed. In a science lesson at a private school in Al Wakrah, a pupil could show a short video from a tablet, then switch to the camera feed to show an experiment done in class.

Can I keep a whiteboard or browser open next to a shared screen?

Yes, using Floating Window mode. It lets the whiteboard, browser or other software run alongside the shared screen in a window that can be moved and resized. This is useful when a lecturer in Education City shows a shared slide while still taking notes or opening a live web source on the same board.

How do we order InstaShare 2 for several rooms in one project?

Send your board models, room count and device list to the SmartRooms Qatar team, and a quotation is usually returned within one working day. Schools and government bodies can order against a purchase order or LPO, and pay by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. A free site survey can also confirm the board setup in each room before the order is placed.
