Lightboard - Super (Simple) tool for making hand written tutorial videos

"The Lightboard is a glass chalkboard pumped full of light. It's for recording video lecture topics. You face toward your viewers, and your writing glows in front of you. "

Lightboard is Open Source Hardware.

so the first image shows the writing properly mirrored and readable to the audience, but the second picture shows it written in the perspective of the teacher, so what is it? and what is so special about it compared to just a glass whiteboard, that you could use any marker on that glows with high amounts of light.

@JoshBent Apparently it's some special kind of glass, and a special kind of lighting. I think

@ScriptCoded so regular glass and regular high power light? nice

@JoshBent she made using some plexiglass, led light strip and image flipping software .. https://youtu.be/L1au1JxMSaA

@ajit555 ah I thought it was for live audience, nevermind then - that's neat.

I don’t feel comfortable with these black board in front of tutor setup. Looks mirrored and weird

@JoshBent the setup is not portable, but can be used for live audience (only the writing, as the graphics are added post editing).
