Re: Microsoft hopes users will leap from their seats and prod the screens with excited fingers
Interestingly (sorta) enough the competing Cisco spark boards do the seamless (sometimes) transfer thing. All spark apps (win, ios etc) emit an ultrasonic tone that when picked up by a Spark board offer to switch or include the meeting and content on the spark board.
When it works its cool (Chromecast for webex) when it doesnt (eg custom audio drivers in Windows BORK it).
The downside is that the Spark app pretty much does exactly the same thing as the Webex app. why 2 are needed I have not a clue.
