Sharp Europe today launches software that makes it possible to join together up to three 80” BIG PAD Pros, to create one huge interactive flat panel display. The ‘Advanced Multi-Board’ set-up, with three BIG PADs side-by-side, creates a surface that is 5.4m wide. Six people can work on the display at the same time.
Christopher Parker, Senior Product Manager, Visual Solutions, Sharp Europe, said: “When it comes to brainstorming, collaborating and sharing ideas, bigger is always better. We see the Advanced Multi-Board set-up being really useful in boardrooms, control rooms and university lecture halls, where large amounts of data need to be worked on and shared.”
Advanced Multi-Board has been designed to be easy to configure, and to deliver the same experience as using a single BIG PAD Pro. This includes features like Pen Software, which lets you write with a special pen as easily as writing on paper and P-CAP touch, a highly responsive touch technology, similar to that used in smartphones.
Advanced Multi-Board is available now from Sharp partners across Europe.
