The invention discloses a positioning method for an electronic whiteboard, comprising steps: S1, selecting four point coordinates in the electronic whiteboard coordinate system as whiteboard reference point coordinates, and selecting four point coordinates in the computer screen coordinate system as computer screen reference points Point coordinates, establish the mapping relationship between the two reference point coordinates; S2, substitute the above coordinates into the whiteboard coordinates and the computer screen mapping relationship to solve the parameter values; S3, according to the calculated parameter values, establish the electronic whiteboard measurement coordinates and the computer screen The mapping relationship between the points; S4, according to the mapping relationship, perform arbitrary position positioning on the area where the electronic whiteboard is located. The invention establishes a more accurate mapping relationship between the measurement coordinates of the electronic whiteboard and the point coordinates of the computer screen, eliminates the error caused by the rotation of the ideal image bearing surface on the plane of the electronic whiteboard, and has a simple positioning method and accurate positioning effect.
