An interactive panel is an excellent alternative
to the full sized interactive whiteboard. The panel is connected to
a computer which is in turn connected to a projector. This allows
the user to operate the computer via the panel (using a pen stylus
on the touch screen surface) which is projected onto any screen or
blank wall. The software is the same as the main board systems used
by the branded company.
The panel allows the user to face their audience
whilst the images are projected behind. the system is particularly
useful for the following:
*
Large Rooms /
Auditoriums
Where
the user requires an extra large screen to project on
*
Disabled
Users
Where
disabled users might not normally be able to reach conventional
boards
*
Science & Technology
Labs
Where
tables and chairs are generally higher - allows for a higher
screen
*
Infant
Teachers
Allows
the teacher to work to small groups and have children interact with
a panel
where
they may not be able to reach a conventional board
