Overview

SMART Bridgit® conferencing software is a client/server application that lets you share programs

and information with anyone, anywhere in the world.

You can use SMART Bridgit software to speak to participants using Voice over Internet Protocol

(VoIP), share your desktop and send e-mail invitations for others to join. Once the meeting has

started, participants can write notes or highlight information on the desktop. You can share your

webcam and view other participants' webcams as well. You can use a self-created or randomly-

generated password that participants must use to join the meeting.

When you participate in or present a meeting, you use SMART Bridgit client software to connect to a

SMART Bridgit server. You can download SMART Bridgit client software on to your desktop and start

the application with a double-click.

All of the features of SMART Bridgit software are available on a SMART Board® interactive

whiteboard or SMART Podium™ interactive pen display. If you present a meeting using an interactive

whiteboard or interactive pen display, you can capture your notes in a SMART Notebook™
