SMART interactive displays – helping to make learning come alive!

SMART Technologies, an innovator in interactive touch technologies and software, have been redefining education for over 25 years, ultimately helping to make learning come alive across the world! We are sure most of you are aware of SMART Boards and many of you most likely use them on a daily basis. Well now SMART Technologies – who originally invented the SMART Board – have reinvented them to create a range of interactive displays specifically for the education sector. Built with the best in touch and collaboration technology, SMART interactive displays offer both students and teachers an unrivalled natural learning experience.

The SMART Board 4000 and 6000 series of interactive displays have been built to last, boasting 50,000 hours of stunning content quality and uninterrupted lessons. Unlike older technologies such as projectors which suffer from glare or shadows getting in the way, as well as burnt out bulbs that are expensive and time-consuming to replace, SMART interactive displays are reliable, meaning you’ll never have to worry about classroom downtime or finding additional budget for replacement bulbs again. Available in 55,65,70,75 and 84 inch models, the 4000 and 6000 series provide an interactive display suitable for every educational environment, no matter its size. Offering durable, commercial-grade LED and HD resolution, they display even the most detailed images brilliantly. Plus, the 75” and 84” models in the 4000 series, as well as all three models in the 6000 series, go one step further, featuring glare-free 4K Ultra HD resolution, enabling students to see the display no matter where they are positioned in the classroom.

SMART’s Silktouch technology ensures each user experiences accurate and responsive touch from corner to corner, every time. Fingers effortlessly glide over the displays surface, giving teachers and students’ hours of comfortable and error-free usage. With SMART ink technology, users’ writing is natural and looks great whether they are writing with a pen or their finger, as the realistic digital ink improves legibility. Each SMART interactive display features simultaneous touch points that will enable multiple students to zoom, rotate and flip content at the same time. Displays from the 4000 series feature up to 10 simultaneous touch points for Windows, whilst displays from the 6000 series have 4 on both Windows and Mac.

Excitingly, each SMART interactive display is powered by SMART Learning Suite, which includes 4 leading education software platforms that combine lesson delivery, assessment, student collaboration and game-based learning. Featuring SMART Notebook, which provides the flexibility to respond to learners’ needs as and when required and SMART Lab which will instantly engage students, as teachers can create customised game-based activities in minutes. SMART response 2 enables teachers to create a set of questions in less than 5 minutes that students can answer on their desktop computers, laptops, tablets or phones. Whilst SMART amp provides a collaborative workspace for students to work on projects together in groups or individually.
