A Smart Board operates with the combination of the interactive whiteboard, a computer, a projector, and a Smart Board software.The device is touch screen that allows the operator to manipulate content with the touch of a finger. Functions on the Smart Board such as scrolling and mouse click works the same way as it would on a computer. The Smart Board typically comes with four digital markers: red, blue, black, and green, and one digital eraser. The markers and eraser are housed in the pen tray. The markers work digitally, and do not actually contain any ink. The computer and board work hand-in- hand together. When something is done on the computer, it appears on the Smart Board and vice- versa. Smart Board Software is needed for your computer to use to actually connect your computer to the Smart Board.
