Collaborative learning is in the hands of teachers and students with the SMART Board 800i interactive whiteboard system. It makes interacting with lesson content an exceptionally natural experience and it increases opportunities to work together to solve problems and discuss lesson activities. The 800i is an all-in-one interactive whiteboard system that helps you manage your classroom technology.
Feature availability: The SMART Board 800 series interactive whiteboard supports multiuser writing and common multitouch gestures currently recognised in Microsoft Windows 7 and Mac Snow Leopard operating systems. SMART Notebook collaborative learning software will support certain features, such as freestyle interaction, touch gestures and full object awareness, upon the release of updated software (SMART Notebook 10.7 software), expected by March 2011.
Multitouch experience
Two users can simultaneously write, perform mouse functions, erase, and manipulate and move objects on the interactive whiteboard surface – and no special tools are required.
Freestyle interaction*
The system enables two users to instantly start working together without having to switch into a separate multiuser mode or work in a confined area. And each user can individually complete actions, like writing in digital ink or moving objects with their fingers.
Object awareness
The 800i uses DViT (Digital Vision Touch) technology to identify when a user switches between a finger, pen and eraser. A user can also write with a pen, erase with a palm and move objects with a finger, without having to press buttons, access on-screen menus or replace tools in the Pen Tray.
Touch gestures*
Use simple, intuitive hand and finger gestures to toss, rotate or zoom in on objects and interact within SMART Notebook software. The 800i has built-in support for Windows 7 and Snow Leopard.
SMART Notebook software
SMART Notebook sets the standard for creating, delivering and managing interactive lessons within a single application. It puts all your instructional materials at your fingertips and allows you to save any notes or content that you write during the lesson to share with students later on. A powerful and easy-to-use application, SMART Notebook software enables you to readily deliver interactive lessons that keep your students engaged and interested.
Multiuser Pen Tray
Pick up one of the pens or the eraser and the Pen Tray automatically detects which tool you’ve selected. Buttons on the Pen Tray select the colour and activate the On-Screen Keyboard, right-click and help functions.
Modular design
The Pen Tray includes two wings on the side that allow you to add accessories, such as SMART projector controls.
Lockable pen option
Hold down a pen colour button on the Pen Tray until the light flashes, and the lockable pen option will lock the interactive whiteboard into pen mode, so you can use any device and it will act as a pen. Early education students and students with additional learning needs can use objects, such as tennis balls, to write on the surface.
SMART Ink
Discover a responsive and accurate writing experience with SMART Ink. It smoothes out the appearance of the digital ink, which improves the legibility of your handwriting as you write over applications, websites and videos. The ink becomes an object that you can move and manipulate.
Save function
Capture your work to SMART Notebook collaborative learning software as a screen shot that you can edit, or save your notes directly into several software applications, including Microsoft Windows versions of PowerPoint, Word and Excel, Adobe Acrobat and AutoCAD software.
Durable surface
The 800i has a low-gloss surface that is optimised for projection. The surface is compatible with dry-wipe markers and is easily cleaned.
Quick start
With the 800i, your computer, projector and SMART Board interactive whiteboard are all connected, so you can turn the entire system on and off quickly with the push of a single button – everything powers up in less than 60 seconds.
Front-of-room centralised control
Switch between all your audiovisual devices straight from the extended control panel. The panel provides centralised control of your classroom technology, including DVD players, digital cameras and document cameras. You can move from a website to a video documentary to a review question quickly and seamlessly. The extended control panel also has a dual-USB port that enables you to connect two computers to the SMART Board interactive whiteboard and easily switch between them as required.
Widescreen option
Enjoy more room to work. The wide-format 885i model gives you 20% more working space than a standard interactive whiteboard – ideal for classrooms that use widescreen laptops and monitors. The widescreen option combines the SMART Board 885 interactive whiteboard with the SMART UF65w projector, which delivers a 16:10 aspect ratio and native WXGA (1280 x 800) widescreen resolution.
3D-ready
Demonstrate complex spatial concepts using third-party 3D content. The short-throw SMART UF65 projector is 3D-ready, accurately displaying 3D content to students wearing 3D glasses.
Shadow reduction
Reduce shadows and distractions with the SMART UF65 projector. Because this boom-mounted, short-throw projector is located directly above the SMART Board interactive whiteboard, it creates fewer shadows behind the user, improving the visibility of images, videos and notes.
Alert broadcast system
Receive important messages instantly. Principals and other administrators can display alert messages on multiple 800i systems at the same time.
Image quality
Experience high levels of brightness and contrast with the SMART UF65 projector. The SMART UF65 delivers 2,000 lumens and a 2,000:1 contrast ratio at a XGA (1040 x 768) resolution. The projector is designed to draw less than 1W of power in standby mode. Its true colour quality enhances the crispness of video, images and websites from every position in the room, no matter what the lighting conditions.
Simple installation
Install the 800i quickly and easily with the boom and swivel mount. The SMART UF65 projector is mounted directly above the interactive whiteboard, so that any classroom can accommodate the 800i without needing complicated wiring or ceiling mounting. The system's integrated elements also ensure that it is easy to maintain.
Filter free
The filter-free design of the SMART UF65 projector eliminates the need for filter cleaning or replacement.
Network-enabled projector
Connect the SMART UF65 projector to your school's network to remotely control and manage it through the web server or SNMP client. As a networked interactive whiteboard system, the 800i's asset management features enable you to control and manage the projector remotely.
Long-lasting lamp
The 800i projector bulb lasts for 3,000 hours in standard mode and 5,000 hours in economy mode. And because the projector is network enabled, you will receive email alerts for temperature warnings or when lamp life is running low.
Option to add sound
Add SMART Audio classroom amplification system or USB speakers to turn the 800i into a complete multimedia centre.
Theft resistant
Feel secure with your technology investment – the protection features of the 800i make it a less attractive target for thieves. The projector head, boom and base are all attached, and because the SMART UF65 projector has no buttons, it is rendered inoperable if removed from the extended control panel. The Kensington cable lock slot and padlock loop are additional visual and physical theft deterrents.
Warranty
Get a three-year warranty on the SMART UF65 projector. The SMART Board interactive whiteboard has a two-year warranty, which is extended to five years upon product registration.
* Feature will be supported in SMART Notebook software upon release of updated software (Notebook 10.7), expected by March 2011.
