What is an interactive whiteboard?
An interactive whiteboard (IWB) is a large touchscreen display that allows users to write, draw, and interact with digital content using fingers or a stylus. IWBs typically feature 4K resolution, multi-touch support (10-20 touch points), and run Android OS with app support. They are widely used in classrooms (smart education), corporate meeting rooms (presentations, brainstorming), and training centers. Sizes range from 55" to 98", with prices from 35,000 to 88,000 THB ($990-$2,490 USD).
