- A passive stylus pen (it works by being in contact with the screen).
Using the Mosaic software, the setup enables display-to-display connections as well as display-to-device and device-to-display interaction. Users can communicate with each other via video and share whiteboard content with connecting mobile devices for wireless transmission to the shared whiteboard.
