Interactive screensharing #449

Open jancborchardt opened 7 years ago

jancborchardt commented 7 years ago

Maybe you saw it, Slack just introduced more interactivity in screensharing: https://slackhq.com/screen-sharing-in-slack-made-interactive-cf8816efaa01

Seems to be quite difficult technically, so it’s only something to might think about in the future. But maybe it gets easier or there’s some open source libaries in the future.

Zoom has this feature, but zoom is under intense discussion in the EU. Some schools have been forbidden to be using zoom and are in desperate need of alternatives. This is the opportunity. If we are quick, we can fill this gap. But it must be in the next days or weeks for the EU to recognize Nextcloud as a valid alternative. Better days than weeks.

I completely agree. There are two features that are really crucial to help people and for meetings:

BBB has the whiteboard feature but no highlighting (which is really sucking: "go one line up, no not two, more to the left, left, left, no the other left, right, right)

Both Zoom and Slack have the highlighting feature.

Jitsi doesn't have it at all.

Perhaps just a simple remote laser pointer would be enough for most cases. But I would love this feature for remote work collaboration.

srkunze commented 3 years ago

Yes. Still needed. :-)

It would already suffice when the audience could laser point to something in the browser window. This would already solve the issue for people with two monitors or when sharing single application windows.

It's highly unlike to have permission to laser-point on a random point of the screen from inside of a javascript application (not sure if there's even an API for this).

This would be suuuuuuuuch a great feature! https://pop.com/ is also worth a look. It also works without installing the client, just in the browser.

Remote control should require an opt-in, while remote pointing might be enabled by default.

Should we perhaps proceed here by describing the functionality more in detail or what's the next step? Also the title of this issue should perhaps be refined and include the subjects of the closed issues, like "Pointer / Screen Drawing / Remote Control"?

Some technical resources:

We would really appreciate this feature. Can we help somehow to get it done?

Maybe this is helpful: Realtime collaborative drawing with canvas and WebRTC
