1. How does a TRACEBoard interactive whiteboard work?

The TRACEBoard interactive whiteboard connects to a computer with a USB cable and draws the power it needs from the computer. The TRACEBoard driver automatically starts when the computer is turned on, and the interactive whiteboard becomes active once the driver is running.

When you connect a projector to your computer, you can project the computer image onto the TRACEBoard interactive whiteboard.

4. Which computer applications can I use?

Any application that you use on your computer will work on a TRACEBoard interactive whiteboard. Some commonly used applications, such as Microsoft PowerPoint, Excel and Word, and AutoCAD, are especially well integrated for use with TRACEBoard interactive whiteboards.

6. How durable is the screen surface?

The screen surface is very durable. The TRACEBoard interactive whiteboard display is made of a special hard-coated polyester.

The hard coat and polyester combine to create a very durable and long-lasting surface.
