SMART and Cisco Deliver Enhanced Interactive Collaboration

SMART Technologies, Eltek Distribution's most important provider of interactive solutions, announces the signing of an official interoperability agreement with Cisco TelePresence for offering an enhanced interactive collaboration. The interactive board series ‘SMART Board 600 and 800' and SMART Board interactive LCD displays can be now integrated with Cisco TelePresence systems, using patent-pending Cisco TelePresence Synch solution for a perfect collaboration in classrooms and meeting rooms.

The solution is designed to allow users that cannot physically attend a meeting or presentation enjoy an interactive collaboration, being able to share applications and make annotations while communicating directly, through an experience that offers live presentation quality. Cisco TelePresence Synch enables users to engage with open applications on the interactive whiteboard or display and with high-definition audio and visual telepresence for a seamless integration of face-to-face and annotative interaction for all participants. The result is a collaborative experience that enables remote participants to see all content and hear all discussions being shared.

Because SMART and Cisco continue leading their industry through innovation and new solutions, this agreement ensures continuous interoperability between each one's technologies. Both business and educational segments can benefit by this agreement.

The Canadian group SMART Technologies Inc. is the world's no. 1 boards and interactive systems producer in the educational and business environment. Regarding the technologies used, SMART provides solutions for the teaching process, meetings, presentations or training sessions.

Cisco is a global leader in the industry of equipment and solutions for communications networks. Cisco's professional systems find their application in areas like education, health, transport, government, telecommunications and so on.
