Find and identify multiple display devices (monitors) using Python

Question

I would like to write a Python program that automatically finds and identifies multiple display devices connected to my computer (Windows). Further I would also like to programmatically start a display session (for example a slide show) in one of those devices. Any ideas how this can be done?

Thank you,

Indranil.

import wmi
obj = wmi.WMI().Win32_PnPEntity(ConfigManagerErrorCode=0)

displays = [x for x in obj if 'DISPLAY' in str(x)]

for item in displays:
   print item

It gives all connected monitor details.
