Draw the diagram, then do the physics — on one endless board

Tools that match physics diagrams

• Free-body diagrams. Use the straight-line tool (L) for force arrows and hold Shift to lock them to 0°, 45° or 90°. Rotate the virtual ruler (R) to the angle of an incline and draw the surface and the components parallel and perpendicular to it.
• Vectors and components. Colour-code each force (weight in red, normal in blue, friction in green) and keep the same colours in the equations so students can trace every term back to the diagram.
• Circuits. Turn on shape recognition and sketch rectangles for resistors and circles for meters or lamps; they snap into clean shapes. Connect them with the line tool.
• Motion graphs. Switch to the grid template (G) for displacement–time and velocity–time graphs, and use the highlighter to shade the area under a curve.
• Optics and waves. Ray diagrams need exact straight lines through a focal point: put the ruler through the point and draw along its edge.

Structure a physics lesson across pages

1. Page 1 — Recall: paste last lesson's exported board or a quick starter question.
2. Page 2 — Model: the diagram and derivation, using as much canvas as the problem needs.
3. Page 3 — Exam question: paste the question with Win+Shift+S and Ctrl+V and annotate it with the class.
4. Export each page as a PNG for students' notes.

Works the way you already teach

InfinitiCanvas runs on the Windows laptop or tablet you already have, with a Surface Pen, a Wacom/Huion/XP-Pen tablet or a touchscreen 2-in-1. Share its window in Zoom, Teams or Meet, or put it on the classroom projector. It works offline, so a dropped school Wi-Fi connection never takes the board with it.
