With the advancement of technology, smart interactive whiteboards have replaced traditional whiteboards. Electronic interactive whiteboards have attracted various industries, especially education and companies, to adopt them because of their high-definition screen display, the ability to write and draw on the whiteboard, and the ability to project computer screen content onto the whiteboard for multiple people to view. We have already talked about the basic introduction of digital interactive whiteboards in previous articles. Today, we will mainly introduce the components of HDFocus's interactive whiteboards.

The Mian Components of Interactive Whiteboard

 

 

The interactive whiteboard system mainly consists of two parts: hardware and software. The hardware includes electronic sensors, computers, projectors, audio equipment, and some auxiliary equipment (such as sensor pens, external cameras, brackets, wireless transmitters, wireless receivers, etc.). The software mainly includes whiteboard software and wireless file sharing software, screen sharing and browser software.

 

 

How the Software and Hardware Interact

 

 

In addition to hardware, the smart interactive whiteboard software is also an indispensable part of the entire interactive whiteboard system. The two complement each other in the entire interactive process, and the final content is presented on the screen.

 

Whiteboard Software

Whiteboard software can be said to be the core of information exchange between users through interactive panels. When interacting on the whiteboard software, the computer in the interactive whiteboard system calculates and processes the position of the sensor pen or finger and the motion signal, and finally presents the calculation result on the screen. For example, when a teacher instructs students through a touch all in one interactive whiteboard, the teacher generally writes in the software with a sensor pen or finger. The sensor pen transmits the teacher's writing trajectory to the computer hardware. The computer, as the control center of the entire hardware system, eventually transfers the received motion signal to the projector, and then the projector projects the signal onto the whiteboard screen for students to watch. In the entire interactive process, the whiteboard software combines the traditional blackboard, computer and projector into one, and none of the three can be missing.

 

Screen Sharing Software

Screen sharing software creates a new space for efficient communication in meetings. When projecting the computer screen content onto the interactive whiteboard, the computer, wireless transmitter and wireless receiver in the system need to work together. For example, during a team meeting, the meeting host opens the screen sharing software, then connects the wireless receiver to the OPS module built into the whiteboard via the HDMI interface, and then plugs the hardware wireless transmitter into the computer's USB interface. The meeting host only needs to press the button on the wireless transmitter, and the wireless receiver will receive the signal and transmit the computer screen content to the system computer through the receiver. The computer then processes the received content signal and sends it to the projector, and finally the computer screen is presented on the whiteboard screen through the projector.

 

Browser Software

The working principle of browser software is similar to the previous two software. The computer in the system processes the searched content first, and then transmits the searched content to the projector, and finally displays text, pictures, videos and other content on the screen.
