The End-user segment emerges as the fastest-growing segment in the interactive whiteboard market

The Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) market experienced significant growth in 2022, with resistive technology holding the largest share. This digital whiteboard hardware utilizes a resistive membrane, enabling touch interactions via stylus or finger. Screen sizes range from less than 50 inches to 50 inches to 70 inches. Infrared, resistive, capacitive, and electromagnetic are the primary technologies. IWBs are increasingly adopted in sectors like Education, Healthcare, Retail, and Corporate, with advance technologies such as digital content, AI, ML, and smart education policies driving demand. These digital screens can be wall-mounted or freestanding, and support digital pens. Traditional whiteboards and projectors are being replaced by IWBs, which offer benefits like affordability and ease of use. Virtual classrooms, tablets, and smartphones are also integrating IWB technology.

In the education sector, digital classrooms are increasingly replacing traditional whiteboards with Interactive Whiteboards (IWBs), also known as Smart Boards. E-learning and active learning techniques, such as gamification and video tutorials, are driving this trend. IWBs, which support multi-touch, gesture recognition, and split screen, enable collaborative learning environments. Companies are integrating AI and ML into IWBs, offering features like remote class facilitation, multi-language support, and student knowledge tracking. IWBs can be touch screen, computer-connected, or even portable. With government initiatives promoting digitalization in education, IWBs, along with other hardware and software solutions, are becoming essential tools in K-12 and higher education, as well as in healthcare, retail, and corporate sectors. These advance technologies enhance the learning experience, making education more accessible and effective. IWBs come in various screen sizes, including less than 50 inches, 50 inches to 70 inches, and support technologies like infrared, resistive, capacitive, and electromagnetic.

Commenting on the market trends, a Senior Analyst of Technavio, stated," The Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) market is thriving in the education sector, with gamification as a key trend. Vendors focus on integrating gamification in classroom management systems, such as ClassDojo, for collaborative learning and behavior management. IWBs offer features like multi-touch, gesture recognition, and split screen, enhancing the learning experience on tablets, smartphones, and digital classrooms. AI and ML are also integral to smart education policies, driving the market's growth."
