A
system (100) provides synchronised content between participants (20, 30) in a presentation (e.g.
conference call) using a presenter component without the need to download and install additional
software or plug-ins. A method for synchronising content between two or more
digital content Tenderers (40) comprises: Receiving over a first
communication channel a first communication indicating a change in content rendered on a first
digital content renderer. Transmitting over the first
communication channel to a second
digital content renderer, a second communication indicating the change in content rendered on the first digital content renderer. Receiving over a second
communication channel a request from the second digital content renderer for the changed content. Transmitting over the second communication channel to the second digital content renderer data enabling the changed content to be rendered on the second digital content renderer. A
presentation layer (45) combines the two streams or tiers and provides the presenter with an
interactive presentation or interactive canvas (40). The interactive canvas (40) enables the presentation of content elements, which are available and utilises specialist tools available from the
application layer (60). This provides both presenter (30) and viewer(s) (20) the ability to interact with the presentation or interactive canvas (40), whilst ensuring that face-to-face audio and / or visual elements from the
communication layer (50) can continue uninterrupted. The
presentation layer (45) also ensures that the presentation or interactive canvas (40) remains in synchronisation for all parties and that the presenter (30) and viewer(s) (20) have a consistent view at all times. The
presentation layer (45) resides on both or all end points (viewer or presenter). The
communication layer (50) may include a cloud-based
server hosted by a
webRTC platform provider, for example. The
application layer (60) may include a cloud-based
server hosted by ISP, for example. The use of indicators and traffic light tools may inform the presenter (30) that the viewer's interactive canvas (40) is in
sync with their own canvas.
