LG Electronics announced it would be among the first TV makers to support Apple's AirPlay expansion, allowing Apple users to stream their personal media to hotel room TVs easily. LG said it would launch LG Pro:Centric Smart Hotel TVs with built-in AirPlay technology later this year.
LG collaborated with Apple to create a user-friendly AirPlay solution. iPhone users can scan a QR code to connect to AirPlay and securely stream content from an iPhone or iPad to a hotel room TV without any extra equipment. LG says AirPlay will work on the TVs it will release this year alongside "recent year's models."
Apple revealed at WWDC that it is partnering with select hotels to bring AirPlay to compatible TV sets. IHG Hotels & Resorts, which operates 6,000 locations worldwide, will be one of the first companies to offer AirPlay in its hotels.
