The annual call for budget requests is in and I’m considering asking
for funds to test this system as a (cheaper than a traditional
whiteboard) way students with low vision might be able to better discern
what the instructor is writing on the board. The idea being that the
device transmits what the instructor writes\draws on the board to the
student’s laptop. 
 
Has anyone tested this already or know of anyone who’s used similar
technology for this purpose? Thanks!
