ViewSonic Corp, distributed by Synergy Audio Visual in Australia, has delivered its ViewBoard IFP50-5 Series, an EdTech innovation to empower educators and students.

Blending the brand’s top-notch interactive display with its myViewBoard software and an optional smart sensor, the solution offers more engaged and collaborative educational experiences along with increased security.

With four sizes to choose from, including 55”, 65”, 75” and 86”, the latest ViewBoard IFP50-5 Series is equipped with an interactive flat-panel 4K UHD display, delivering up to 40-point touch and the innovative Ultra Fine Touch Technology for a pen-on-paper writing experience that multiple users at a time can enjoy.

For teachers that embrace a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) approach, the ViewBoard IFP50-5 Series offers a single-cable USB-C setup that ensures effortless connectivity for streamlined technology integration, allowing multimedia playback, data transfer and power charging of devices while keeping simplicity in the classroom. With two 12W speakers and one 16W subwoofer, the ViewBoard delivers unmatched sound quality to help students stay attentive.

Moreover, its octa-core CPU and the Android 11 OS offer powerful performance and expanded compatibility with third-party apps, enabling teachers to access their preferred education tools seamlessly and securely.

With its software’s enriched digital teaching tools and features, the ViewBoard IFP50-5 Series empowers educators to prepare and teach interactive lessons effortlessly, leveraging multimedia in innovative ways to keep students engaged while learning in the classroom or online.

For effective multitasking and group activities, teachers and students can utilise myViewBoard Whiteboard’s Picture-in-Picture (PiP) and Picture-by-Picture (PbP) features to share content simultaneously and collaborate in novel ways.

The myViewBoard also offers streamlined functionalities for the school’s IT administrators. The myViewBoard Manager, for example, provides intuitive remote control of multiple devices at once, enabling remote device management and allowing school admins to broadcast announcements across multiple classrooms.

For extending management of the classroom to its environmental conditions, the ViewSonic 6-in-1 Smart Sensor is an optional add-on for the ViewBoard IFP50-5 Series. Powered by the ViewBoard directly via USB cable, the Sensor provides real-time monitoring of temperature, humidity and air quality, including CO2 and PM2.5, and displays the information on-screen, enabling educators to maintain an optimal learning environment at all times.

Additionally, the Smart Sensor’s advanced detectors and PIR technology help schools conserve energy and reduce carbon footprints by sensing the room’s occupancy and automatically powering on or off accordingly. For added security, an NFC chip reader on the Sensor prevents unauthorised use via card-based locking and unlocking of the display.
