1) ABOUT

This project was initialized by Professor Prandoni from EPFL in the context of a bachelor project entitled
"Maintainable Online Coursese". The motivations for this project was the lack of intuitive slideshow annotation
software considering the current boom of online classes, most notably the MOOCs.

One of the major limitations of current options are the fact that annotations and video tracks are interwoven,
giving very little editing power after a recording has been done. Such editing could come in handy to correct mistakes
or update a video lecture.

In this application, we attempt to seperate out the two worlds of annotations and slide transitions(video) and experiement
to see if such a setup could be beneficial to the workflow. In order to achieve this result, the approach has been to 
carefully and precisely register every slide transition and pen stroke timing, to then be able to succesfully replay
the session but with full modularity when it comes to editing and modifications.

2) HOW TO USE

This Javascript browser application was made as a prototype to experiment for a later more performant desktop version.
In order to run it in your browser, you must put the files in a localhost server. Once that is done, navigate to the 
"/web/viewer.html" file and open it in your Chrome browser. If you do not see any slides, please refresh a few times,
as a loading synchronization error may occur. Once the slides are displayed, navigate/annotate/record at will !
