Colaborate with Hitachi’s New StarBoard FX-Duo-77 Multi-touch Interactive Whiteboard

Hitachi have released the StarBoard FX-Duo-77 multi-touch Interactive Whiteboard which feature the ability for users to collaborate using the board at the same time (two points of contact). The board can be operated using hand gestures such as the spreading apart of two fingers (no special pens or pointers required) to enlarge an on-screen object. Another useful feature is the selection of 24 customizable side buttons for quick operation of common tasks without navigating software menus. For peace of mind, Hitachi have contained the all FX-Duo-77 electronics in a replaceable component and covered it with a five-year warranty.
