About your interactive flat panel
Your SMART Board interactive flat panel features SMART’s proprietary DViT® (Digital Vision Touch)
technology on an LCD screen with e-LED backlight which enables you to select, write and erase on
the interactive surface. You can do everything on the interactive flat panel that you can do at your
computer by touching the surface, and you can use an array of gestures within applications.

l

Touch-enabled interactivity
You can do everything on your interactive flat panel that you can do at your computer—open and
close applications, meet with others, create new documents or edit existing ones, visit websites,
play and manipulate videos and so on—by touching the interactive surface.
You can also write over any application in digital ink using one of the supplied pens or your finger,
and then erase the digital ink using the supplied eraser or your palm.
Object awareness enables you to pick up a pen, and then write, select or erase without replacing
the pen.
Gesture support
You can use an array of gestures within applications, including panning, scaling, rotating and
zooming in and out.
Dual user support
Two users can each pick up pens and draw on the screen at the same time, enabling greater
collaboration.
Presence detection
Your interactive flat panel has two presence detection sensors on its frame that can detect people
up to 16' (5 m) away. When the sensors detect people in the room, the interactive flat panel turns
on. When the sensors no longer detect people in the room, the interactive flat panel turns off.
