Method and system for information exchange

System for the exchange of information, containing a first and a second station, wherein

• the first and the second station each comprise a display, a camera, a spacer and a communication device connected to the display and the camera, and
• the two stations are designed to transmit a first image recorded by the camera of the first station from the first station to the second station by means of the communication devices and to display said image in a first display area of the display of the second station, and to transmit a second image recorded by the camera of the second station from the second station to the first station by means of the communication devices, and to display said image in a first display area of the display of the first station, and
• wherein the two stations are also designed to display the image recorded by the camera of the first station in a second display area of the display of the first station and to display the image recorded by the camera of the second station in a second display area of the display of the second station, and
• wherein it applies both to the first station and the second station that the spacer is designed for positioning the camera at a distance from a work surface, in such a way that the camera captures the work surface, and for this purpose the spacer has a base for supporting on or attaching to the work surface or to a different object, and has a support, which is either connected to the base or formed integrally with it, for attaching and/or holding the camera.
