Hitachi BT-1 Bluetooth Tablet

Hitachi™ BT-1 Bluetooth Tablet

The StarBoard BT-1 Freedom Tablet is a lightweight, portable presentation device from Hitachi. The StarBoard BT-1 can be used with all StarBoard presentation systems. It is used to annotate presentations and run computer applications in meetings rooms and classrooms while moving about in the room. The StarBoard BT-1 communicates to the computer running the StarBoard Software through a wireless Bluetooth interface. The BT-1 is battery operated, as is its pen. Consequently, it is a completely wireless device providing complete freedom to move about the room while delivering presentations. The Bluetooth receiver is a small device that plugs into any USB port on the computer.

While looking at the projected image or 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. Thus the operation is much like using a desktop mouse, except much more natural for writing notes and performing other operations with the pen input device. The StarBoard BT-1 System is a full presentation system with the complete StarBoard software suite for mobile presenters to use with laptops, or as an upgrade for rooms already equipped with computer, mouse and projectors.
