Interactive Whiteboard: By: Rishwanth Reddy K

An interactive whiteboard is a large touchscreen display that functions as a whiteboard and computer screen. It can be used independently or connected to a computer and projector. The interactive whiteboard captures the movement of a finger, pen, or pointer on its surface using infrared light detection to activate functions. Interactive whiteboards are commonly used in classrooms to teach students and in boardrooms for meetings and training due to their ease of use, ability to increase participation and focus, and low maintenance needs. However, they can be expensive to purchase and require technological knowledge for repairs.
