The Smart Board 6065

Smart Technologies has unveiled the Smart Board 6065, the first model in a new line of interactive flat panels for education. Measuring 65 inches on the diagonal, the display boasts ultra-HD 4K resolution and a smooth, low-friction surface. It supports up to four simultaneous touches and automatically detects the difference between a finger, pen and eraser, so users don't have to interrupt the flow of a lesson to manually change modes. A Pen Identification feature allows two users to work at the same time with different colored pens or distinct tools.

The Smart Board 6065 comes with Smart Notebook collaborative learning software and a one-year subscription to Notebook Advantage, a suite of plug-ins, widgets, learning content and subject-specific add-ons. Also included is access to the Smart Exchange Web site, where educators can connect, share and download more than 60,000 digital resources.

The Smart Board 6065 interactive flat panel will be available globally in June with a suggested education price of $4,499.
