Education
Interactive whiteboards are becoming increasingly popular alongside traditional whiteboards and chalkboards in modern classrooms.
These tools allow teachers and students to instantly capture their work electronically, interact with, and modify existing content like pre-planned lessons.
USB and Video Extension Solutions for Digital Signage
The interactive digital boards often use USB technology, along with the standard USB limitations requiring the host to be less than 5 meters away of the display. Using Icron’s ExtremeUSB® extenders to bridge the distance gap, reaching greater distances, and increasing the modern classrooms flexibility.
