ViewSonic Showcases Collaboration Solutions at ISTE 2016

ViewSonic’s Award-Winning Interactive Flat Panel Displays and Networkable Projectors to Highlight Several Collaboration Technologies

DENVER, ISTE, Booth #2915 (June 27, 2016) – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solution products, announces a showcase of its award-winning educational solutions at the ISTE Conference, June 26-29, 2016 in Denver, Colorado. ViewSonic’s displays and interactive software solutions provide schools with the tools that build technologically advanced classrooms where students and teachers create, communicate, and collaborate.



ViewSonic will highlight products at ISTE where teamwork is inspired and collaborative sharing is promoted. Using ViewSonic’s interactive flat panel displays, including the 70-inch CDE7061T and 65-inch CDE6561T, the company will demonstrate huddle spaces using its interactive ViewBoard™ for Education software and Mersive’s Solstice™ collaboration software. These displays can be utilized in Android-, iOS- and Windows-based classroom settings.

All ViewSonic^® interactive flat panel displays for education, including the CDE7061T and CDE6561T, come with ViewSonic’s exclusive ViewBoard™ for Education software. The easy-to-use annotation software solution was specifically designed for interactive displays. It allows teachers or students to write, highlight, edit and transform documents and images on-screen in real time, maximizing the capabilities of the interactive display to create more engaging content for collaboration. The software also features many easy-to-use templates for English, Math, and Science. By using ViewBoard for Education, content such as documents and images can be instantly edited and saved in a Google drive, then shared in a Google-based classroom.

Designed for unlimited users, Solstice Software enables multiple users to easily and simultaneously share content from a range of devices (laptops, tablets, or smartphones) over a Wi-Fi or LAN network. With a Solstice-enabled ViewSonic display or projector in the classroom, a number of students can instantly connect, share, and control content on the display or projector to better facilitate collaboration among students.
