For educators and schools, the quest for educational technology tools that truly engage students and streamline instruction is ongoing – technology directors and IT teams are constantly looking for technology that empowers teachers to teach more effectively, collaborate seamlessly, and create dynamic learning environments for their students. Whether refreshing a single classroom or scaling across a district, the right interactive whiteboard can be so much more than a classroom display, it can equip with modern, powerful tools designed for the future of education.
Building on their legacy of innovation in the education technology space, ViewSonic’s newly launched ViewBoard IFP51 Series brings a powerful blend of simplicity, versatility, collaboration, and sustainability to the learning environment.
Elevate the Classroom Experience with the ViewSonic ViewBoard IFP51 Series
Built to support diverse learning environments, the ViewSonic ViewBoard IFP51 Series of EDLA-certified interactive whiteboards combine powerful performance, effortless usability, and classroom-friendly tools to empower teachers to deliver engaging lessons while enabling schools to operate more efficiently and sustainably.
1. Teach Your Way with High Performance and a Powerful Audio-Visual Experience
Prior the ViewSonic ViewBoard IFP51 Series, schools had to choose either between a traditional Android Open Source Project (AOSP) interactive display that runs on an Android OS without Google Mobile Services or an EDLA-certified interactive display that runs on a fully-licensed Android OS with Google Mobile Services. With the ViewBoard IFP51 Series, the display is embedded with both options and educators can choose to select either the GMS option or non-GMS option when setting up their display.
The ViewBoard IFP51 series is designed to simplify lesson delivery and classroom interaction. The series runs on Android 14 and is available in five sizes (55”, 65”, 75”, 86” and 98”) making it the perfect fit for any classroom environment. The octa-core CPU and 16GB RAM deliver smooth and efficient multitasking, enabling teachers to run multiple applications simultaneously without lag. Additionally, teachers have the ability to sign-in via NFC, SSO, or QR code and instantly access their personalized settings, apps, and content, eliminating delays and wasted setup time.
Building on that immediacy, the display is equipped with ViewSonic’s Write-Away technology enabling fast, fluid writing. With 50-point multi-touch, multiple users can write or draw simultaneously using styluses, fingers, or both for seamless collaboration and palm rejection technology prevents accidental inputs from wrists, sleeves, or hands, ensuring a smooth and precise writing experience. Lastly, a powerful 70W front-facing soundbar (dual 25W speakers) with a built-in subwoofer (20W) ensures crystal-clear sound throughout the classroom and the integrated beamforming microphone array with noise cancellation captures voices from up to 8 meters away, making it ideal for remote teaching and lesson recordings.
2. Streamlined Familiarity, Security, and Sustainability with EDLA
With its EDLA certification, the ViewSonic ViewBoard IFP51 series offers native integration with Google Workspace for Education provides seamless access to tools like Docs, Meet, Drive, and Classroom, offering a familiar, low-friction teaching experience. Additionally, educators can download and access thousands of educational apps through the Google Play Store, directly from the classroom display, to further enrich their teaching toolkit.
The Android 14 EDLA ensures enterprise-grade security. Built-in security features like automatic Google updates, Google Play Protect, data encryption, and two-way authentication safeguard school networks and user data. Additionally, Google Workspace Enterprise Management empowers IT administrators with advanced tools for policy enforcement, app management, network configuration, and remote security control, ensuring a secure and well-managed learning environment.
Lastly, the ViewBoard IFP51 series is EPEAT Silver-certified and consumes 20% less power than predecessor models. You can take the energy savings even a step further by utilizing ECO mode scheduling and remote power management via ViewSonic’s device management software (ViewSonic Manager – more on this below).
3. An Unmatched, Comprehensive Classroom Solution
To deliver a comprehensive classroom solution for teachers and students alike, the ViewBoard IFP51 Series is fully compatible with ViewSonic Education Software including:
- myViewBoard Digital Whiteboard: Enables teachers to deliver engaging lessons using an infinite canvas with tabbed pages, support for importing multiple file formats, and “Participate Mode” for active collaboration.
