Oct 28: As workplaces become increasingly hybrid and collaborative, the traditional meeting-room screen is evolving into an interactive workspace. Today’s interactive displays combine touch technology, wireless connectivity and increasingly, AI-powered capabilities to help teams brainstorm, present, annotate and collaborate more effectively. Here are five ways interactive displays are transforming modern offices.
1. Turn meetings into interactive brainstorming sessions – ViewSonic ViewBoard IN6505-N
Interactive displays can move meetings beyond passive presentations by allowing teams to write, annotate and interact directly with content on screen. The ViewSonic ViewBoard IN6505-N combines interactive collaboration with AI-powered capabilities, helping users make meetings more productive through features such as AI MindMap, which turns scattered ideas into organized mind maps and brainstorming flows within seconds; Circle Go, which lets users simply circle any content on screen to instantly generate explanations and visuals; Ask AI, which enables hands-free control of the board through voice commands; and Live Subtitle, which provides real-time multilingual subtitles and translation so every participant can follow along. As part of ViewSonic’s Google-certified EDLA ViewBoard range, it is designed to support brainstorming sessions, presentations and team discussions while bringing greater efficiency to modern meeting rooms.
2. Make hybrid participation more inclusive – Samsung WAFX-P Series
For hybrid teams, simply displaying a video-call window may not be enough. Interactive displays with wireless screen sharing, multi-touch capabilities and annotation tools can help remote and in-room participants contribute more naturally. Samsung’s WAFX-P Series, for example, is designed to support collaborative interaction and screen sharing, helping teams work together regardless of where participants are located.
3. Bring multiple ideas together on one screen – LG CreateBoard
Modern meetings often involve presentations, documents, websites and brainstorming sessions simultaneously. Features such as split-screen functionality and wireless collaboration can allow teams to work with multiple content sources without constantly switching between devices. LG’s CreateBoard range is an example of how interactive displays can bring different forms of content into a shared workspace.
4. Enable multiple team members to collaborate simultaneously – BenQ Board Pro
Collaboration becomes more natural when several people can interact with the display at the same time. The BenQ Board Pro range supports multi-touch interaction, allowing multiple participants to write, annotate and engage with content simultaneously—particularly useful during brainstorming sessions, workshops and group presentations.
5. Turn the meeting room into a shared digital workspace – SMART Board
Interactive displays can also serve as a central digital workspace where teams can brainstorm, map ideas, annotate presentations and review content together. SMART Board solutions demonstrate how interactive technology can transform the display from a simple presentation device into a more collaborative environment for modern workplaces.
The modern meeting room is moving from a space where information is simply presented to one where ideas are created together. Interactive displays can help organisations make meetings more visual, participative and connected—whether employees are sitting around the same table or joining remotely. With AI, touch interaction, wireless connectivity and collaborative software becoming increasingly integrated, interactive displays are emerging as an important technology for the future of workplace collaboration.
