Depending on the use we make of our Mac, it is likely that on more than one occasion, we have been interested or have had the need to have another screen. In the Mac App Store we can find different applications that allow us to use our iPad as a second screen, but in most cases the results They leave a lot to be desired.
Luna Display is an accessory that allows us wirelessly connect our iPad to the Mac to be able to use it as a second screen. This project, which we already talked about at the end of last year, started a campaign on Kickstarter to carry out the project. Once the campaign for this platform has ended, Luna Dispaly is now available for sale.
Luna Display differs from the applications that allow us to perform this same function, in that it is not only software, but there is also a hardware component for this avoid lags that occur when the connection is only made through an application. If you have had the opportunity to try these types of applications, surely you will despair that slowness when displaying the content on the iPad screen.
Luna Display is compatible with the MacBook Air from 2012, MacBook Pro from 2012, Mac Mini from 2012, iMac from 2012, Mac Pro from 2013 onwards and with the iMac Pro obviously. Regarding the necessary hardware in the iPad, according to the manufacturer, we can use any iPad from iPad 2, iPad that must have at least iOS 9.1.
Luna Display is priced at $ 80 and we can get it directly on the manufacturer's website through the following link It is available with USB-C and Mini DisplayPort connection. To be able to use this accessory, we just have to download the corresponding application completely free of charge. At the moment, it is only compatible with macOS, but according to the manufacturer, it will soon also be compatible with Microsoft's operating system for computers.
