SMART 330 - Using the Mixed Reality Mat

uniform, neutral work surface. The work surface should not be darker than the black elements on the
mixed reality cube or lighter than the white elements on the cube.
N  N O T E S
l In very bright rooms, the work surface can appear whiter than the white elements on the
cube.
l You can print a mixed reality mat and place it under the document camera to increase
contrast between the cube and the background (see Using the mixed reality mat below).
A typical projector room is usually quite dark. For Mixed Reality Tools to work properly, the document
camera’s light should be turned on. Don’t manipulate the cube more than 14" (35 cm) from the
document camera.
N  N O T E
If SMARTNotebook software doesn’t enter MixedReality mode when you hold the cube under the
camera, shake the cube under the camera. If the issue persists, press and hold the brighten button
on the document camera to maximize the brightness.
Using the mixed reality mat
To increase the contrast between the mixed reality cube and background, you can use the mixed
reality mat available from the SMARTSupport website. The mat includes marks that indicate the area
in which you can move the cube while in MixedReality mode.
To print the mixed reality mat, you need the following items:
l A computer with Internet access and Adobe®Reader® or Acrobat® software.
l A printer
l Tape
g To print the mixed reality mat
