Question
How can I use a Padcaster to join a Webex Meeting?
Answer
A Padcaster is a wheeled tripod enabling users to connect their iPad as a mobile camera. Use a Padcaster for detailed and close images obtained by using the iPad camera capability with Webex Meetings. To obtain a Padcaster, your department may borrow one for a short term from the IT Service Desk or purchase one from B&H in eCUBE.
About the Padcaster: View images and descriptions of the Padcaster and tripod dolly on the public B&H website. Financial managers, please visit eCUBE for the most current contracted price for the University.
