How do I use OKIOCAM with Blackboard Collaborate? – OKIOLABS

Step 1. Plugin your OKIOCAM and launch Snapshot and Recorder extension on your Google Chrome.

If you have not added the Snapshot and Recorder extension, check out THIS ARTICLE for instructions.

Step 2. Start a session on Blackboard Collaborate, allow access to your microphone and camera. You may notice that the image is backward (mirror image).

Even though it can seem unusual and unnecessary that while video conferencing, the video in your preview window is mirrored, there is an explanation. It is not a fault with your OKIOCAM. Video conferencing applications do this because, in general, it is easier to adjust your position in the frame, and it is more natural to view yourself mirrored (like how your reflection looks back at you in a mirror).

Don't worry. We are going to fix this issue!

Step 3. Open Collaborate Panel by clicking the bottom right corner.

Step 4. Go to 'Share Content' and choose 'Share Application/Screen.'

Step 5. Click Chrome Tab and choose 'OKIOCAM Snapshot and Recorder'

Step 6. Voila! Now you can see the non-mirrored image on Blackboard Collaborate.
