  Largest Interactive Whiteboard - world record set by Osnes Nordic Group

 Lillestrøm, Norway -- During the SkoleForum education trade show the Oslo-based audio-visual distributor Osnes Nordic Group AS unveiled a custom-made, eBeam-enabled interactive whiteboard measuring nearly 49.2 feet (15 meters) wide -which sets the world record for the Largest Interactive Whiteboard .

Osnes demonstrated the enormous whiteboard’s interactive capabilities using 3-D educational software developed for teaching about the human body with interactive whiteboards.

   The Largest Interactive Whiteboard is wider than many movie theater screens.

    Now, imagine being able to use that whiteboard to display complex three-dimensional drawings to an entire auditorium, while adding notes with an interactive stylus and capturing and manipulating text, images and video, all of which can be saved and shared via the Internet in real time.

   The system demonstrated at SkoleForum featured more than 7 times greater display and data capture area than today’s largest conventional interactive whiteboards.

    “Our award-winning eBeam technology plays a key role in this groundbreaking project,” said Luidia CEO Rafi Holtzman. “This unprecedented achievement illustrates the flexibility of our technology to turn any flat surface into an interactive one, regardless of size.”

   “We are very proud to have Luidia’s eBeam solutions as the major component in this effort,” said Osnes Nordic Group Partner Rolf Ravne. “Osnes Nordic Group has had tremendous success with Luidia products and this further demonstrates the flexibility and scalability of eBeam systems.”

    To provide interactive data-capture and display capabilities across the giant whiteboard, the demonstration used six eBeam® Edge receivers linked to six computers and six digital projectors.

     Luidia’s portable eBeam receivers use infrared and ultrasound signals to precisely track the location of transmitter-equipped stylus pens, transforming any flat surface – including classroom and conference room whiteboards, LCD displays, tables and walls – into fully-featured, interactive whiteboards.
