It’s a plug and play solution suitable for education, sales or professional use. The system is flexible being suitable for use with rear projection, LCD or plasma display. Additionally, when teamed with a digital projector, it can convert any soft or hard projection screen (or suitable surface) into an interactive whiteboard. The Onfinity CM2 can handle screen sizes up to 150 inches. The heaviest component is the signal receiver at only about 0.5lb.The Onfinity CM2 system consists of a special ePen, an optical receiver unit which is connected to a PC. The connection is USB which eliminates the requirement for a battery for the optical receiver. The PC is also connected to the display device. The Optical Position Dectection Technology (infrared signalling) used by Onfinity doesn’t require any attachments to the screen such as with other similar products such as eBeam.

Setting up the ONfinity CM2’s is simple process as follows:

• Load CD onto computer (first time only),
• Connect the ONfinity signal receiver to PC’s USB port,
• Connect the PC to a projector, plasma or LCD screen,
• Position the ONfinity signal receiver so that the two red dots shine below the bottom corners of the projected image,

On the most basic level an Interactive Whiteboard (sometimes Electronic Whiteboard) is a dry-erase whiteboard writing surface which can identify the location of any contact on its surface and capture any writing or drawings electronically. By interfacing and interacting with devices such as computers, video recorders and DVD players, interactive whiteboards can be utilized as a large display panel to provide a richer, interactive media basis (sound, video, images, interactive software, web sites etc.) for presentations or problem solving.

Interactive whiteboards can be used in the workplace to capture meeting notes and as a tool for work on collaborative projects. They are particularly useful for collaborative use of software such as project scheduling or computer aided design (CAD) software.

Using an Interactive Whiteboard

Interactive whiteboards are used in one of two ways;

• To capture notes written on the whiteboard surface using dry-erase ink or,
• To control (click and drag) and/or mark-up (annotate) a computer-generated image projected on the whiteboard surface from a digital projector.

Interactive whiteboards work as a large computer screen by projecting the computer image onto the board via an external projector. The computer can be controlled via sensors on the board being used to position the cursor. There are three different types of board with different ways of controlling the computer via the board, electromagnetic, touch-sensitive and infrared.
