Smart board refers to electronic whiteboards which provide the facility to interact; you can touch the board to control it instead of using keyboard or mouse. It is an interactive whiteboard that is connected to a computer and a multimedia projector. Once the computer image is projected on the board you can move your finger across the whiteboard, displaying the computer image, the mouse cursor follows. You simply tap the screen twice with your finger to perform the normal double-click as you would do with your mouse. You can control most of the computer actions from the front of the class or meeting room by just interacting on surface of the board. You can also write or draw on the whiteboard with your finger or the pens provided and save the image to the computer. These images, which are your notes from the meeting or training session, can then be printed or emailed. The software included with some interactive whiteboards also has built in Optical Character Recognition, which means you can write on the screen and the computer will recognize your hand writing and turn it into computer text.
