Context
Where the project started.
Teaching and workshop spaces relied on projection and passive screens. Sessions could not easily include remote participants and material created in the room was lost at the end of each session.
Challenges
- Sessions could not continue after the room was vacated
- Remote participants could not see or contribute to the canvas
- Panels would be used by many different facilitators
- Devices needed to be managed centrally and securely
Objectives
- 01Make walk-up interactive collaboration the default
- 02Allow session content to be saved and continued
- 03Include remote participants in workshop formats
- 04Manage the panel fleet consistently
Scope
- Interactive display deployment
- Whiteboarding workflow design
