Hitachi StarBoard BT-1 Freedom Tablet with StarBoard Software Suite

The Hitachi StarBoard BT-1 Freedom Tablet is a lightweight, portable presentation device, and is an accessory for all StarBoard presentation systems. The BT-1 is used to annotate presentations and run computer applications in meeting rooms and classrooms while moving about the room.

The StarBoard BT-1 System becomes a full presentation system with the optional StarBoard software suite for mobile presenters to use with laptops, or as an upgrade for rooms already equipped with a computer, mouse and projectors. When used in combination with a video projector or a plasma display, the presenter can move about the room with the simple pen on tablet interface to run the StarBoard Software or any other application.

The StarBoard BT-1 communicates with the computer running the StarBoard Software through a wireless Bluetooth interface. The BT-1 and its pen are battery operated and consequently completely wireless, providing complete freedom to move about the room while delivering presentations. The included Bluetooth receiver is a small device that plugs into any USB port on the computer.
