Transparent Writing Glass With a Built-in Camera
The HoverCam eGlass 35 is a 35" transparent writing glass board with a built-in camera designed for distance, hybrid, or in-classroom learning allowing educators to "write on the board" while facing their students.
Little has changed in classroom instructional methodology since the advent of chalkboards over 200 years ago. Even with today’s whiteboards, projectors, and touchscreen displays, there still exists a fundamental flaw when writing on the board: the instructor must turn their back to their students to write. This leads to a decline in student engagement, and the problem has only become worse in today’s world of distance learning. eGlass is our solution to this problem.
Research shows us that when students see their teacher’s facial expressions and gestures while teaching, students’ ability to acquire and retain knowledge significantly increases. And eGlass does just that: its built-in camera captures the teacher’s glowing neon writing and their face in the same frame, and flips the image so the students see the writing correctly. eGlass is easy to use, has little to no learning curve, and simply requires a computer to operate. Its adjustable lighting controls allow it be used in any environment: from bright classrooms to dark living-rooms. It’s not only a unique tool to engage students in the classroom and online, but is the new medium for digital learning that will fundamentally transform education for the better
