SMART Board User's Guide - Psychology

Before a meeting or presentation, you can use the tools available in SMART Notebook
software to create a multi-page Notebook file, and you can then open that file on the SMART
Board interactive whiteboard during the meeting. As the meeting participants provide
comments and make suggestions, capture their input using the many available tools, and
navigate between each page in your Notebook file by simply touching the whiteboard screen.
But Notebook software is much more than just an electronic flip chart for displaying
presentations or capturing notes from a brainstorming session. It also serves as a receptacle
for anything you write on the SMART Board interactive whiteboard over any application.
As soon as you write over a Windows operating system application with a Pen Tray stylus, a
toolbar appears that lets you save a bitmap image of both your annotation and the underlying
application. Macintosh computer users can access this same annotation-capture capability
from the SMART Board tools menu. When you perform a capture, the image is automatically
placed on a new page of the current Notebook file. You can save the captured annotations
as a Notebook file, a PDF file, a series of image files or an HTML file (Windows only).
SMART Recorder (Windows Operating System Only)
With SMART Recorder, you can record everything you do on a SMART Board interactive
whiteboard, no matter which applications you’re using. You can then play the recording using
Windows Media Player (a free video player) on any computer. If you have a microphone
attached to your computer, you can even record audio in sync with your data. SMART
Recorder produces standard Audio Video Interleave (AVI) files.
SMART Video Player (Windows Operating System Only)
Use SMART Video Player software to view and annotate video and graphics. You have the
option of playing software video files or the output from any video hardware device that can
connect to your system, such as a video camera, projector, scanner or document camera.
When you use SMART Video Player, you can set options for pausing the video whenever you
annotate, or for slowly fading out annotations as the video plays.
SMART Video Player supports all the video file types supported by Windows Media Player,
as well as any video hardware device that complies with the DirectX 8.0a applicationprogramming
interface and runs on a Microsoft Windows operating system capable of using
Windows Driver Mode (WDM).
