Interactive whiteboards, also known as smartboards are a type of digital display that allows users to interact with content using their fingers or a stylus. They are typically equipped with high-resolution touch screens, built-in speakers and microphones, and a variety of connectivity options. They are becoming increasingly popular in businesses of all sizes, as they offer a number of advantages over traditional whiteboards and projectors.

3 Benefits of Interactive Whiteboards for Businesses

1. More engaging presentations

Sharp’s interactive whiteboards make it easy to create and deliver engaging presentations. Users can annotate documents, play videos, and even create interactive polls and quizzes. This helps to keep audiences engaged and focused on the material. Presentations to your investors, clients, or potential customers become more impressive and make a greater impact.

2. Enhanced collaboration

They are also ideal for collaboration. Multiple users can work on the same document at the same time, and changes are made in real time. This makes it easy for teams to brainstorm ideas, develop solutions, and work on projects together. You can make office meetings more engaging and develop better ideas and synergy.

3. Improved training

Sharp interactive whiteboards can also be used to improve employee training. Trainers can use the boards to display presentations, videos, and other learning materials. They can also use the boards to interact with trainees and provide feedback. This helps to create a more enjoyable and effective learning experience.
