Swivl


Swivl is a robotic platform which can be used for recording presentations or class lectures. Users can connect a smartphone or tablet, or a DSLR camera, and use the free Swivl app to record video of the presentation. The Swivl robotic base can follow the "marker," either held or worn on a lanyard, allowing the instructor or presenter to move around freely and have the camera follow them. The marker conveniently doubles as a wireless microphone and as a remote control for the slides in the Swivl Capture app. Powerpoint slides can be imported to the Swivl app on the smartphone or tablet, which can be used to present while recording video, and facilitate the creation of a video with time-synchronized slides and presenter video. The Swivl Capture app can be used with Swivl Cloud without the Swivl robot, or with the Swivl robot. Swivl Cloud provides secure online video hosting, editing, and sharing services. This allows users to upload videos and store them securely online without having them take up space on their device or computer. Users can also edit videos and easily share them with classes or with a larger audience through Swivl Cloud. If anyone at the high school is interested in using the swivl it is free to use, just come to room 346
