What is a modern class? What is the necessity of it?


Vercel logo


The modern classroom is interactive, engaging, data-driven, and connected beyond boundaries. It is equipped with teacher— and student-friendly cutting-edge technology, such as the AI-enabled interactive flat panel for teaching like the EyeRIS AI Digital Board and personal collaborative devices like tablets with students. These tools empower students to express their ideas, learn at their own pace, and significantly reduce the teacher's workload. With these advanced, exciting, and collaborative teaching tools, teachers can extract peak performances from students with minimal effort while enhancing the overall learning experience.


Interactive Panels VS Interactive Projectors


Interactive flat panels are like giant tablets fixed to the classroom walls, empowering teachers with their easy UI and interactive teaching tools. They help teachers go beyond teaching with quick content, assessment, and quiz-creation processes that allow them to avoid burnout.
Interactive projectors are classroom overhead projectors with interactivity that allow teachers to project the learning material and interact with the screen, annotate, and perform basic gestures. However, teachers need more tools to help them provide a great learning experience for the students. Teachers must rely on external tools to be installed and get the desired teaching output.


Let us dive deep into different aspects of interactive projectors Vs. interactive panels


Image Quality


Interactive projectors project light from a range of distances, decreasing the intensity of the light projected. The projectors use the white marker board as a platform for projection, and due to the smooth finishing of the board, there would be a reflection that disturbs students' view. The other light sources must be switched off or made dim to ensure the visuals are visible in a classroom. Another problem with interactive projectors is that the bulb life diminishes after some time, and the picture quality decreases over time.

Interactive flat panels for teaching with an internal light source can have 4K UHD displays and deliver bright and clear images even in brightly lit classrooms to students who develop a curiosity to learn. The image quality never diminishes, ensuring the same experience throughout the panel's life.


Aesthetics


Any new technology should enhance the look of the classroom and add to the environment. Gen Z students are more used to television and mobile phones and feel the projector is outdated and complex. Interactive flat panels enhance the overall look of the classroom and attract the students' attention, elevating the ambience in the modern classroom.


Multi-Touch Points


Most interactive classroom overhead projectors use styluses for interactivity, limiting teachers to only one or two touch points on the large screen.
Teachers explore touch interactivity with fingers without any stylus on the interactive flat panel for teaching, allowing them to conduct classes collaboratively and encouraging students to participate in classroom sessions with multi-touch points.


Functionality


Teachers will walk into the classroom with different expertise and technological knowledge. The interactive classroom overhead projector must be connected to an external source processor for teaching, which may be complex for teachers. There is no built-in application for the projectors. Projectors, when connected to the external process
A large interactive flat panel for teaching, like EyeRIS AI Digital Board , will be integrated with an intelligent AI-based application, BrightClass , with an easy UI without external connections. Teachers can instantly generate curriculum-centric lessons and PPTs rich in multimedia instant search options for images, videos, and text; the generation of quizzes revolutionises the manifolds of teaching and learning experiences.


Touch Accuracy


Let us understand how touch works in an interactive classroom overhead projector. In this, the stylus emits IR rays, and the sensor in the projector's camera detects the motion on projection and the interaction. This touch interactivity is not accurate and presents a delay.
The touch interactivity on the latest interactive flat panels like EyeRIS AI digital board works with the most advanced Optical Touch Technology . The panel's grid of sensors emits crisscross parallel beams of IR upon interaction, delivering exceptional accuracy and zero lag.


Installation


To avoid calibration failure, the interactive projector needs enough space on the ceiling or floor, with proper wiring for the cable connections that run from the projector to the CPU and a stationary wall.
The interactive flat panel for teaching has multiple installation options, such as wall mounting or tabletop. Wiring is also needed to ensure a power supply. These panels don’t need calibration to get accurate touch responses, saving time.


Initial Cost and Maintenance Cost


Interactive classroom overhead projectors cost much less than interactive flat panel projectors. When the number of units installed in an institution is initially high, it may be cheaper to install the interactive projector, but the replacement of bulbs and fans in the projectors goes up as time passes. Interactive flat panels like EyeRIS with built-in teaching applications like BrightClass further reduce costs, saving the amount incurred on content solutions, digital whiteboarding tools, and quiz generation applications.


What are the key factors to consider when buying an interactive flat panel?


  • Size of the Panel: Based on the classroom size and number of students, choose an interactive flat panel ranging from 55” to 98” for teaching.
  • AI-integrated teaching software: Choose the digital board with integrated teaching software and avoid additional subscriptions to other applications that provide interactive teaching tools to engage students.
  • Touch Technology: The most important aspect of teaching is touch interactivity. Optical Touch technology delivers a zero-jitter, lag-free, and smooth writing experience.
  • Connectivity Options: The interactive flat panel must have multiple input and output ports to connect teaching accessories, and it should support wireless connectivity.
  • Durability: The IFP's build quality should be good and robust, as unexpected student behaviour can damage it.
  • Support System: The IFP has high credibility, a track record, and a wide range of service centre presence. They should also offer warranty and training programs.

What makes EyeRIS Brightclass unique?


EyeRIS AI Digital Board, with the AI-based application BrightClass, developed based on teachers' feedback and input, turns the classroom into a teaching powerhouse.


  • AI Lesson and PPT Creation Tool Teachers spend a lot of time preparing lesson plans, lessons, PPTs and quizzes for the class, but EyeRIS AI Digital Board helps teachers generate all these in a minute, reducing the teachers' workload and saving time.
  • Distribution of Lecture Recordings and Materials Content distribution is a difficult task for teachers, but with a click, you can publish content to the students through the EyeRIS AI digital board. They can access the recordings and essential material and learn concepts at their own pace.
  • Auto-Grading and Report Generation EyeRIS AI Digital Board allows teachers to create assessments and quizzes based on Bloom’s taxonomical principles. The exciting thing is that with specific rubrics for evaluation, AI automatically grades and generates reports, which helps teachers provide personalised guidance to the students.
  • AI Video and PDF Summariser While preparing teaching material, teachers refer to many videos and PDFs, but going through them consumes effort and time. The EyeRIS AI Digital Board has the wonderful feature of giving the key points and quiz questions from a YouTube video or PDF, which helps teachers create up-to-date and engaging teaching material.

Conclusion


In this detailed overview of interactive projectors vs. interactive panels, the interactive flat panel stood out as the best option for institutions to bring engaging and interactive teaching and learning experiences to teachers and students. EyeRIS AI Digital Board has all the intelligent features that make teaching more effective and get the best out of students. Here is the evidence that the EyeRIS panel made its way into prestigious institutes like IITs, BITS, DPS, etc., to transform educational experiences.
