Abstract
A method of collaborating between a first display computer associated with a first display at a first location and a second display computer associated with a second display at a second location includes establishing a connection between the first and second display computers, opening a virtual canvas to be shared by the first and second display computers, the virtual canvas to be displayed on the first and second displays simultaneously, and sending an object between the first and second display computers by sending data associated with the object on the virtual canvas stored on the first display computer from the first display computer to the second display computer to be stored locally, thereby creating a shared canvas, wherein objects are at a single location on the shared canvas, and objects on the shared canvas can be manipulated from both the first and second display computers simultaneously.
