Abstract

Recently, technology of interactive whiteboard has been used in schools instead of ordinary whiteboard. It has potential to improve educational environment and teacher-student interaction. Therefore, this paper introduces a new design of interactive board system. The system aims to enhance a low cost interactive whiteboard system for extensive usages as well as to support collaborative learning activities. A new system is designed using infrared (IR) glove/IR finger tip for interaction technique. Additionally, the system will be able to produce single/multi interactive boards to support multi users.
