82" Diagonal Interactive Whiteboard with Integrated Speakers and USB Hub

Dubai, United Arab Emirates - Panasonic, the most customer-preferred electronics brand in the Middle East, has launched a range of new technology within the unique Panasonic Panaboard UB-T880 Series.

The interactive whiteboard offers an unparalleled working environment by which allows display of the contents of a computer screen directly onto the board. This enables users to operate their own software applications for business presentations or school lessons.

Available in the impressive 82" wide version, or the more compact 77", the elite Panasonic Panaboard UB-T880 Series comes complete with a built-in amplifier which connects to USB speakers, built into two USB hub-ports and up to 3 finger touch.

"This new Panaboard range is packed full of state-of-the-art unique Panasonic technology," said Maeda Kensuke, Product Manager, Panasonic Middle East. "This new display will change the way presentations are made in Middle East offices and schools, by energising presentations, and keeping students engaged. The board helps to bring ideas to life through, simple, yet sophisticated technology."

The new series also provides simple video and audio data transfer through the unique wireless connection, all incorporated within the enhanced elite Panaborad software.

It is simple to save projected notes directly onto a PC, and with remote operation, anything written with the electronic pen can be saved with the application. The Panasonic elite software makes business more active with useful screen-capture modes, drawing tools, magnifier and an on-screen keyboard.

Windows applications like PowerPoint and Excel, and even special educational software, can be operated right on the Panaboard. The elite Panasonic Panaboard software enables users to write or draw onto the screen, add notes, diagrams, text and images. This provides powerful support for both business and education, with persuasive presentations back by internet resources for the office, and engaging lessons filled with large-screen visuals for the classroom.

The Panasonic Panaborad offers a stereo speaker system, and durable and special low-glare surface to provide the perfect backdrop to the most critical presentations. It is also easy to convert the Panasonic Panaboard into a tele-conferencing suite in conjunction with web-conferencing software. The new Series is a cost-effective solution allowing everyone to attend the meeting, on-site, or remotely.

Through the Panasonic hub it is possible to integrate a wide variety of Panasonic technology including printers, scanners, speakers, DVD and video players.
