eGlass
The All-in-One Lightboard with a Built-in Camera.
Overview
eGlass is not a traditional document camera but an innovative teaching tool that combines a lightboard with a built-in camera. It allows educators to write on a transparent glass surface while facing their students, creating a more personal and engaging connection. The embedded camera captures both the instructor and the glowing ink, and the image is automatically flipped so the text appears correctly to the audience. It connects to a computer via USB and can be used with any video conferencing platform.

- Transparent lightboard with ChromaClear technology
- Built-in, automatically-flipped camera
