Interactive Touchscreens being a Step Ahead of the IWBs

Interactive Touchscreens for schools have now become a hugely popular and acceptable thing. But have you thought that why every other person wants to shift to Interactive Touchscreens from Interactive White Boards. You might think that both of these devices are more or less same without some very minute difference.

No, that is definitely not the factor. If there was really a little difference between these two, then there would have no need of switching to the later one. There are certain specific distinctions between them which have made Interactive Touchscreens come in front of the list.

Today, this article from Media Scene Technology is here to discuss those differences. Read along to know what those factors are:

Projection Technology

The Interactive White Boards run with the help of projectors. The images are reflected on the screen through the projectors. This conventional method is a huge drawback for IWBs. With the projection, you will also experience shadow on the screen which makes the visualization quite hard and not so clear for the students as well.

On the contrary, Interactive Touchscreens are made perfectly for schools. This device uses such a technology which we come across almost daily – the flat screen television technology, which means the images come from within. Have you even seen any shadow on your television? No, right!! In the same way, you will not experience such incident with these devices as well.

Resolution

IWBs cannot work in high resolution; they do not give the outcome in high definition most of the time. Thus the images on these boards are not so clear and are also dull.

But this just does not go with Interactive Touchscreens because their images come in ultra-high definition resolution. Thus the images are clearer than even before, brighter and even larger which results in giving the benefit to the students to learn with ease.

Lamp Replacement

For IWBs, the images get even dimmer and dimmer everyday because of the lamp and the filter. So, you need to change them on regular interval to keep it running smoothly; otherwise the result will keep on dissatisfying you even more.

With Interactive Touchscreens, there is no need of those bulbs because they run totally differently from that of the IWBs – the images come from within. So, when there is no need of those bulbs or filters, there is no need to change them as well. And you will experience good outcome constantly.

Power Consumption

As IWBs run with the help of projectors, it obviously uses more power than Interactive Touchscreens. And with the Interactive Screens from Media Scene Technology, you will also get automated turn off system of backlight which helps in saving more power.

Noise

Most of the projectors have fans which produce noise in the classroom and can disturb the students’ attention. Even if you are buying those projectors with ‘eco-mode’, you will come up with another problem of reducing the brightness of images even more.

Interactive Touchscreens do not produce any noise and thus creates no disturbance and smooth to run in the classroom.

Thus you can understand that along with maintenance cost, noise, and the quality of images – Interactive Touchscreens for schools are always a step ahead than that of the Interactive White Boards. Now, you decide whether to shift to Interactive Touchscreens or not, because no matter what they are beneficial in every way.
