About

- Touch-enabled, e-LED LCD display
- A durable, high quality display that uses smooth, anti-glare glass to create an optimal touch experience. 4K ultra HD resolution is available with each model.
- Presence detection
- The display automatically turns on when people are near and turns off when no movement is detected
- Multi-tool, multi-touch
- Work naturally by using touch gestures to write and manipulate content or simply pick up a pen or eraser. Two people can interact with content simultaneously.
- Touch gestures
- Zoom, flick and rotate objects easily – the 8000 series supports touch gestures like those used in the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system.
- Object awareness™
- Functionality automatically adjusts depending on the tool or object being used, whether it’s a pen, finger, eraser or palm.
- SMART Ink
- New with SMART Ink, the dynamic ink toolbar appears as soon as you pick up a pen. Easily select ink tools, navigate through application specific ink tools and discover enhanced text injection and editing tools.
