About your interactive flat panel

Feature highlights

Commercial-grade, touch-enabled flat panel

Your SMART Board 8055i interactive flat panel features SMART's proprietary DViT® (Digital
Vision Touch) technology on an LCD screen which enables you to select, write and erase on the
interactive surface. It enables you to do everything that you can do at your computer—open and
close applications, conference with others, create new documents or edit existing ones, visit
websites, play and manipulate video clips and more—just by touching the interactive surface.
Two users can also draw on the interactive surface at the same time and you can use an array of
gestures within applications.

Elegant, sophisticated design

The professional design and crisp, eye-catching visuals of the SMART Board 8055i interactive
flat panel make it perfect for any high-end workspace.

Software

To use all the features of your interactive flat panel described in this guide, go to
smarttech.com/downloads and ensure that you have the latest version of SMART software and
SMART Product Drivers installed on your computer.

Presence detection

The interactive flat panel has two presence detection sensors on its frame that can detect people
up to 5m (16') away. When the sensors detect people in the room, the interactive flat panel turns
on. When the sensors no longer detect people in the room, the interactive flat panel turns off.

Dual sketch capabilities

Two people can each pick up a pen and draw on the interactive surface at the same time,
providing a higher degree of interactivity.
SMART Ink™
SMART Ink enables you to write and draw in digital ink over open applications, files, folders,
websites and any other open window on your computer. When you write outside the open
windows on your computer, a SMART Ink Note appears and you can write inside the note.
When you open an application that has its own ink tools, you can turn off SMART Ink and then
use the application's ink tools to write in the content.
For more information, see the SMART Ink user's guide for Windows® operating systems
(smarttech.com/kb/170191) or SMART Ink user's guide for Mac OS X operating system software
(smarttech.com/kb/170192).
