our humble proposition is to not replicate the whiteboard but teach it digital tricks like enhanced legibility, auto-save, digitization (now: save as vector; later: transcribe). in…

Whiteboarding is at the top of my team's list too. We couldn't live without them after going fully remote so we put together this little doozy: https://sharetheboard.com It's the c…

Yes, the idea (at least in our app) was to mimic the experience of a real whiteboard, where your colleagues also tend to be behind you. The app also serves educators who in fact ca…

I think this challenge remains unanswered to this day in one important way: just about all current handwriting recognition tools assume you're capturing that handwriting digitally …

How do you reach the same level of effectiveness teaching or debugging math problems on a whiteboard without investing a lot of time asynchronously? If I may be so bold, we've take…

hey, wnolens I completely agree: in certain cases, the whiteboard is irreplaceable. in others, a notebook/paper can be very efficient too. We didn't want to part ways with our favo…

Hello again. Have you had chance to continue your exploration?

Please do! I love the exploration here. I think the interplay of offline-online is, generally, woefully underserved. I resisted the temptation to mention it earlier but I feel I mu…

Thanks - I appreciate the thoughtful feedback. An open-ended follow-up: is there any way the whiteboard could be improved upon (and/or is there a way to better incorporate it into …

"I haven’t had a need for a shared whiteboard experience yet..." Just to make sure I understand correctly: does this mean that in all cases (whether you're presenting or viewing) y…

I agree (and I'm glad I'm not alone). Haven't seen the swivel stand approach - good idea! Curious: * Is sharing the whiteboard via camera enough for you/your colleagues? * Are you …

A few years ago, our team built an app that allows you to share a whiteboard (or any analog surface) online, in real time. The reason was simple: we love whiteboards - they're very…

I'd like to offer an alternative to the surrogate method... Many of the folks on our team have kids and, like so many people worldwide, were greatly disappointed by what happened i…

Our team has developed https://sharetheboard.com The app digitizes handwritten content in real time, making it an excellent way to share a real whiteboard (or other surface) with r…

Hi, lumost - Happy New Year! Thanks for taking the time to test out the app. Really appreciate the thoughtful feedback. In answer to your questions: 0) In short, unless you volunte…

Hey, lumost, I agree with most of your assessment. I particularly like the focus on fatigue. I think this tiredness (in oh so many ways) has yet to be fully understood - not to men…

Hey, Niko, Nicely done! Very smooth stabilization. I'm curious: in most of the examples on your site you show the smartphone quite close to the shared surface. What's the maximum d…

"...roles that require a lot of whiteboarding and brain storming simply don't work well remote on zoom" Agreed. And the point about eye contact really extends to any remote exchang…

Getting to know people and their voices does take some time, so cameras can be useful when the team (or some new teammate) is new. I'd like to think we can play it by ear but I fee…

Dear alwaysanon, I humbly invite you to try ShareTheBoard ( https://sharetheboard.com ) We believe you shouldn't need an iPad/apple pencil to conduct remote whiteboarding. With som…

Indeed, most of our users simply open our app, then use Teams/Zoom/Meet to share that tab using the built-in screen-share. That gives you content legibility but none of the other b…

Sorry, can't resist: you've perfectly teed-up ShareTheBoard. Solves the exact problems you've listed here. https://sharetheboard.com

plug: this is along the lines of our thinking, at ShareTheBoard. rather than kill the whiteboard with VR, we use vision to give it new tricks. step 1 is real-time content digitizat…

Hear, hear!

My suggestion is to keep using the whiteboard when you can, and a (paper) notebook when you're on the road. Then digitize that content (in real time, if working with someone simult…
