Using uBoard for a Presentation

The uBoard interactive system comes with its own fully featured software called MINT Interactive.
It has all the usual tools and capabilities that you would expect in any modern interactive whiteboard system, but some users may not be aware that it gives you the ability to run engaging presentations very easily indeed.

If you already have a presentation created, you can simply open it in MINT and then you have the power to use the pen and tools to make your presentation very interactive and interesting. For example, you may have a slide show made using PDFs (yes,you can do this!). Imagine how much more engaging it would be if you could interact with your audience by highlighting key points, drawing connections on the slides, or magnifying sections that need emphasis - well, with MINT you can!

It is as simple as starting MINT, clicking on "Open", navigating to your file then selecting import.
The software brings it into MINT automatically and you can then use the full range of tools.
At the end of the presentation, you can discard all the annotation, or save it to show another audience. Very handy indeed!
