Webcam

Your camera, live on the board.

Put a live camera feed on the board — point it at a science demo, the mealworm enclosure, or a book under the lens so thirty people can see one small thing at once.

  • Free for teachers · no login required

Your camera, live on the board — point it at a demo, a book, the class pet.

Nothing is recorded — the feed lives and dies in this box.

How it works

Three steps, zero setup

No setup screen, no import wizard — Webcam lives on the same board as everything else and it's running before the class has sat down.

1

Open the dock and tap Webcam

Grant camera access and the live feed appears on your board.

2

Point it at the thing

A demo, a document, the class pet — whatever thirty students can't crowd around.

Resize the feed

Make it board-sized for the big reveal, or keep it small in a corner as the hamster-cam.

Classroom ideas

Try it tomorrow

Three ways teachers actually run webcam — steal one for tomorrow morning.

Science, visible

The reaction, the dissection, the seedling — under the lens at board size instead of a thirty-head huddle around one desk.

How-to close-ups

Origami, knots, sewing, calligraphy: your hands under the camera beat a video someone else made of theirs.

Show-and-tell upgrade

The tiny fossil or lego build goes under the lens, so the back row finally sees what the front row sees.

Homework as a QR code by the door and our daily links as big buttons — I haven't typed a URL in front of the class in months.

Same dock, one tap away

Pairs well with

Every tool lives on the same board — these turn webcam into a whole routine.

Draw

Model under the camera, sketch the key idea beside it.

Timer

Demo on screen, countdown beside it — stations run tight.

Handwriting Lines

Real work under the camera, the ruled model beside it.

Document

The instructions on one side, the live demo on the other.

…and the rest of the dock is one tap away:

FAQ

Good to know

Can I use it as a document camera?

That's its best trick — point a camera at the desk and model writing, dissections or origami for the whole room.

Which camera does it use?

Whichever you choose — pick between built-in and plugged-in cameras in settings, and mirror the image if it reads backwards.

Is anything recorded?

No — it's a live view, not a recorder. Close the widget and the feed is gone.

Do I need an account to try it?

No — no login, no install; just allow the camera. Boards save on this device; an account only matters across devices.
