Capture and Annotate Live Content
With the VisualBoard application, you can capture content presented locally or received from other sites into
a snapshot. You can then annotate on this snapshot. A snapshot is made when the application is launched
and the system is showing content. To save content, you must have a USB memory device installed.
While in a call, you can capture and annotate live content from the far-end site. This multisite collaboration
allows every site in a call (either point-to-point or multipoint) to take control of the VisualBoard application.
To capture and annotate live content from a PC or Mac:
1 Display content on your computer using People+Content IP.
People+Content IP is a free application you can use to share your desktop during a call. You can
download it from the
Polycom Support Center.
2 Double-tap the touch monitor to start the VisualBoard application and capture the content.
3 Make annotations on the displayed content.
4 Select Save to save a slide of the computer screen with your annotations.
