How to Choose the Right Interactive Smart Board for Your Office or Classroom

In today’s fast-paced, tech-driven environment, interactive smart boards are no longer a luxury — they’re a necessity. Whether you're leading strategic meetings in a corporate boardroom or teaching dynamic lessons in a classroom, the right smart board can transform how you communicate, collaborate, and create.

But with so many models and features out there, how do you choose the right interactive smart board for your space?

At DIRCOM , we specialize in helping organizations select and install the best-in-class Hikvision smart boards — and in this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know.

🤔 Why Upgrade to an Interactive Smart Board?

Gone are the days of whiteboards and markers. Smart boards offer:

• Touch-enabled digital whiteboarding

• Wireless content sharing

• Built-in video conferencing tools

• Annotation, saving, and cloud integration

• Real-time collaboration (even remotely!)

But not every smart board is built the same. Here’s how to find one that fits your needs.

🧩 Step 1: Know Your Space

The size of your room plays a key role in which model you need.

• Small meeting rooms / classrooms: 65” boards like the Hikvision DS-D5B65RB/B

• Medium-sized spaces: 75” boards offer a balance of size and performance

• Large conference halls / auditoriums: 86”+ options like DS-D5B86RB/B ensure visibility for everyone

💡 Pro Tip: Always consider wall height, seating distance, and glare from lighting when choosing size and placement.

🖥️ Step 2: Consider Display Quality & Touch Sensitivity

Hikvision smart boards offer 4K UHD resolution, ensuring sharp visuals — critical for data presentations, design work, or multimedia teaching.

✅ Look for:

• High brightness and contrast

• Multi-touch support (at least 20 touch points)

• Smooth, low-latency writing experience

Whether you're drawing diagrams, annotating live, or just navigating between slides, a fast and accurate touch system makes all the difference.

🧠 Step 3: Choose the Right Operating System

Hikvision panels come with an Android OS pre-installed, which gives you access to:

• Built-in whiteboarding tools

• Document viewers

• Internet browsing

• Wireless screen sharing

Need more? Add a Windows slot-in PC to run custom software, Microsoft Office, Zoom, Teams, and more.

🛠️ DIRCOM Tip: Hybrid workplaces benefit most from dual OS flexibility.

🔌 Step 4: Check Connectivity Options

Depending on your setup, you may want ports and features such as:

• HDMI, USB, USB-C, VGA

• RJ45 LAN ports for secure wired internet

• Wi-Fi & Bluetooth

• Wireless screen casting (supports Android, iOS, Windows, Mac)

Hikvision panels support multiple users sharing content simultaneously — perfect for comparing reports, showcasing student projects, or real-time team editing.

🎥 Step 5: Think About Audio & Video Needs

If you're doing a lot of video conferencing or hybrid teaching, go for a smart board with:

• Built-in 4K camera (select models)

• Noise-cancelling microphone arrays

• Integrated stereo speakers

This setup eliminates the need for external devices and makes your meeting or class plug-and-play ready.
