Off the top of my head at that office I think there were 22 meeting rooms. Most with 2 white boards if not more. So you would need to buy 44 cameras. Alot of them werent even real white boards but like these clear glass boards which were hung infront of a white wall.

I don't know if you know who Casey muratori is but I would of loved a white board in the style he has. It's basically translucent and he writes on the back of it and it's over laid on his stream. He jumps between his computer to show code and then goes to board to do diagrams or quick math or whatever.

Owl cameras area great, they follow speakers around the room. You could even mount a plain old security camera on the ceiling and attach it to the videoconference system.

Does that guy just flip his video so that he can write forwards and you still see it forwards? Writing equations backwards would be a hell of a skill. I'd probably end up forgetting how to write them forwards.

I have no idea how he does it but let me find a video to demonstrate. The content doesn't really matter if your not technical but I'm just referring to the board he has.

I no longer work at that company so the camera situation is not my problem.
