In this paper we have studied about the interconnection technology between tablet device and interactive white board(IWB) system. For this study we have implemented the board writing software for both tablet device and interactive white board system which has contents management, page turning and basic writing functions. Then we defined the data format to communicate the control information and board writing information between two devices, and implemented the communication module for the real-time bidirectional communication by using the Socket programming. The page turning or writing information on tablet device were transferred to the IWB system in real-time and vice versa. From the result of performance test based on the error rate, latency time and communication coverage we derived that our implementation software has good performance between tablet device and IWB system. Also from the result of field test we proved that our solution is well suitable to use in real education environment.

The smart educational environment using the IWB(Interactive White Board) system has been built and developed since e-learning industry was developed significantly in the early 2000's. Basically the IWB system includes the board writing software, and instructors can further increase the training effect by handwriting on the IWB. In this paper we propose new menu layout mechanism of board writing software that only a few menu buttons are displayed based on the frequency of menu usage and the position of menu layout is dynamically moved according to user's writing position. The implementation of our proposed mechanism shows that it is simple and easy to use without user's unnecessary movement. Therefore it is expected to contribute greatly to the development of a future smart education.

With the recent development of IT technology, various digital media to which new information technology is applied are being developed. In classroom lessons, the learning environment centered on lectures has changed to a learning environment in which learners participate. In particular, Interactive WhiteBoard (IWB) are used as an effective digital medium for teacher-learners to collaborate for interaction. However, existing IWB are expensive to purchase and maintain, and provide various and complicated functions to operate the IWB, which imposes a heavy burden on users. In this paper, we develop a low-cost IWB that supports collaborative learning to facilitate interaction in the space where projectors are installed to improve the teaching-learning environment. In addition, it is implemented so that learning activities using the IWB are interlocked and stored in the learning management system.

In this paper we introduce a commercial interactive whiteboard (IWB) system named ImSensorTouch by ImSensor Inc. Using this interface system, we can control our computer through the interactive whiteboard screen just by touching it with your finger or a pen. The interface interacts with Windows operating system (OS) and is adaptable to changes of surroundings especially temperature, and illumination condition. The proposed system calculates the difference between a reference image and a current image captured by a camera in the optical receptive field. And the position making the difference is used to generate the position on Windows screen. Then, we send a mouse event on the position to Windows OS. We have implemented the system using a critical section(CS) with two threads for the reference frame update process in which an adaptive thresholding technique is periodically exploited to get reliable result. We expect the system is competitive and promises a bright future in the IWB market.

Conventional one-way cramming education at schools has the disadvantage of poor student interest in learning, immersion, and learning efficiency as well as a limitation in realizing collective intelligence and collaborative learning. Therefore, an educational content service platform using a near-field communication(NFC) technology is required as a tool for encouraging the voluntary learning participation of students and increasing learning effectiveness through self-directed studying. This study focuses on the development of an educational content production system that creates high-quality education contents suitable for smart schools. In these schools, students and teachers generally communicate through an electronic blackboard using Bluetooth, which is an NFC technology. Further, the lecture notes of individual students are reproduced and collected as big data, which will facilitate the sharing of these notes.
