• How can interactive displays and whiteboards improve collaboration and productivity?

  Whether all in one place or distributed, today’s teams often face challenges when it comes to staying on track with meeting notes, file management, and delivering projects by predetermined deadlines. While there’s lots of technology for making it easier to have face-to-face meetings, even at a distance, the variety of tools professionals and students have to navigate can make it difficult to maintain consistent progress with collaboration.

  Interactive whiteboard screens and displays provide a variety of ways to interact, whether in-person or remotely. This means more ways to communicate and brainstorm innovative concepts, which means better results and more engaged meeting participants. 

   

  With an interactive board, however, you can take these benefits to the next level, saving and accessing all your meeting notes from one device so you always know where to catch up on the last conversation and your next steps.

• What applications can I access on OneScreen whiteboards?

  You can access any application available via the Google Play Store. Whether your school or business uses Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams meetings, users can download the right apps, sign on, and start remote meetings in minutes. And you can use popular browsers such as Google Chrome to access your workplace tools and cloud storage accounts.

  Having access to all your applications means your teams can keep using the productivity and communication products that work for them. Your business can have in-office workers join a video conference with remote workers and business partners at other locations so everyone can participate in the conversation and collaboration.

• What features or capabilities do OneScreen whiteboards have?

  Each OneScreen interactive display board has an onboard PC, an HD webcam, and a wireless keyboard. This allows meeting participants to use video conferencing apps, and the touch-screen whiteboard comes with a floating annotation. So not only can you take meeting notes in your favorite cloud-based document system, but you can also annotate anything on the screen, including video stills, images, documents, and more.

  In addition to accessing all your favorite Google Play Store apps, OneScreen makes it easier to communicate across languages and provides accessible collaboration options for your employees. OneScreen whiteboards have built-in transcription and translation software, which means you can more easily ensure that your entire team is on the same page.

  OneScreen whiteboards also have features that allow easy screen sharing, video conference recording, wireless streaming, file transfer, multi-camera streaming, and remote management, as well as optional educational software.

• How can interactive whiteboards be used for education and remote learning?

  Interactive whiteboards can be great tools for student learning and education management. While students may not have the same responsibilities and day-to-day tasks as business professionals, they do need the same kind of simplified access to communication and collaboration tools.

  As remote learning has become more common for younger students, digital whiteboards can make it easier for the learning experience to stay consistent from the classroom to at-home learning. With OneScreen whiteboards, teachers can opt for learning management software, subject-specific toolbars, and lecture preparation and delivery platforms that make it easy to get lessons started and keep students engaged. 

  And with the whiteboards’ screen sharing capabilities, teachers can make sure all the students have the same material in front of them and aren’t struggling with navigating confusing tech to get to the same place.

• Will OneScreen whiteboards work with other office devices and systems?

  In short, yes. OneScreen whiteboards have file-sharing capabilities that make it easy to transfer important documents and meeting notes so you know that they are securely saved. Additionally, the whiteboards have both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth as well as HDMI and multimedia USB ports, so you can either remotely or directly connect to your office devices, including printers, computers, and more.
