Introduction
The Polycom VisualBoard application allows you to show and annotate content in real time from Polycom
video conferencing systems by using an electronic annotation device such as a touch screen monitor. You
can use the monitor as your only content monitor or you can use it in addition to your current content monitor.
When using a touch screen monitor, you can annotate the content using your finger, a stylus, or a mouse.
When using a standard monitor, you can use the UC Board device or a mouse to annotate. For flat, cold
surfaces such as whiteboards with projectors, Polycom suggests using the Polycom UC Board with the
VisualBoard application.
