Resistive (SMARTboards)

The 600-series SMART Board interactive whiteboards use resistive technology. These interactive whiteboards comprise a flexible plastic front sheet and a hard backboard. The back of the flexible sheet and the front of the backboard each have a thin coating of resistive film. The resistive sides of each are separated by an air gap of two-thousandths of an inch, or about the width of two human hairs. Pressure applied to the surface of the front sheet closes the gap, registering a contact point.

Electromagnetic grid (Promethean)

 

Integral to the Activboard is our specially designed electromagnetic grid, which will remain unaffected by any screen surface damage.  The grid ensures incredible accuracy, with on-screen tools such as protractors, can measure down to a single degree.  Activboard comes complete with two Activpens, that write exactly like pens with the added functionality of a mouse.
