As long as the document camera has a USB output, you can connect it to the PC and use the document camera software (usually comes with it) to view the document camera through the PC and then also use it with the SMART software.

That would be awesome because we use the <a href="http://www.avermedia-usa.com/presentation/product_quickplay.asp" rel="nofollow">AVerMedia QuickPlay</a> to connect the PC. We have also started using <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVppfnXtPZ4" rel="nofollow">YouTube videos</a>. Just search "tornado"on youtube. It is great!

The other thing that stands out is that you continually evaluate things and make improvements. This project NEEDS to be shared over and over again. It is very unique. You may already have this included, but one suggestion I have for an additional piece for the studio is a document camera, like the AVerVision CP300. It has a flexible gooseneck and auto focus, so Rusty could share all kinds of small objects and obviously any maps, pictures, etc. The other cool thing is that if you connect it to the PC you can use the document camera through software that comes with it and annotate over it with your SMART software.
