This, at least for chalkboards instead of slides, exists. And works surprisingly well.

- Animats 11y agoThat's fascinating. The company behind it has a web site.[1] They had this working in 2002. Their web site is so outdated that it uses RealVideo and QuickTime. Their standard system costs $90,000. Their web site was last updated in 2004. The name "AutoAuditorium" is licensed from Telcordia, which used to be Bellcore, which used to own Bell Labs. So this may be a Bell Labs spinoff that was commercialized, but not very well. Somebody in the online education business should buy this technology and modernize it, so it costs about $9000, or $900, instead of $90,000.
