3. How does the Interactive Pen Display work?
The new Interactive Pen Display of TechPod has been designed for those, who want to combine the advantage of a pen tablet with a high-quality LCD display.  The new display allows the user to input data directly on-screen – with greater speed and accuracy thanks to the perfect hand-eye-coordination. It servers as a perfect companion for any presentation. Control and sketch on your presentation or any other software application without turning your back to the audience. Navigate, sketch and write directly on the screen! It can also replace your old chalkboard! The Interactive Screen is more natural, intuitive and far more ergonomic than everything you used to use at work.
