This Smart Projector Can Play Netflix Right on Your Wall Though streaming services like Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu have made thousands of movies and TV shows available at the click of a button, watching this content on a laptop or smartphone screen isn't exactly the ideal experience. To get that larger-than-life movie theater feel in your own home, there's Beam—a smart projector that can play any available app on the walls of your home. And you don't need to be a tech genius to figure it out. Beam screws into standard light sockets and projects an 854 x 480 resolution image onto the wall at which it's pointing. The device works by connecting to your home's Wi-Fi, which allows you to download and install apps like Netflix, Hulu, Facebook, and Spotify. It's equipped with eight gigabytes of storage, and there's a remote app you can use to control the Beam from your smartphone or tablet. Screw Beam into any existing light socket or use the included power cable to place it on a flat surface. Place Beam anywhere you like: Above a dining table or put it in your bedroom, it's all up to you! After you've given Beam a place in your home, you can set it up to respond to you automatically. You can tell Beam to do what you want it to do when something you define happens. Like: Show a message when someone comes home, play a Youtube movie to wake you up or even show you the latest news in the morning. It's not cheap at $450 but it is exceptionally compact and easy to use. See http://ift.tt/2mSvQmH
