Where Can Interactive Displays Thrive?
Interactive displays work great in collaborative spaces. Meeting rooms, classrooms, and training rooms are the best environment for an interactive display. In older, less advanced classrooms projectors were widely used to project lesson content to the students. Although, at the time, this was a solution that worked, wear and tear wold creep in. After a while the projector light would fade and the reason for the projector would become pointless as the content shared became too difficult to read. Then when this happened you would have to replace the old projector, meaning in the end the projector would become way more expensive then originally thought.
However with an interactive display, sharing content will never be faded. A CleverTouch, UX Pro, or Smart Technologies interactive display will keep its quality for a longer period of time. Meaning you wont have to worry about replacing any lamps.
Steering away from faulty's, an interactive displays is an all round better experience in an education environment then a projector solution. With an interactive display you wont have to worry about bright projector lights, shadows blocking your content, and fuzzy content from the projector trying to focus.
In the long term an interactive screen can be less pricey than a projector, have longer lasting high quality, and it can make your meeting room or classroom more professional and tidy.
