New Interactive Whiteboard
I used the website abcya.com and we decided to play money bingo. I had each of the kids come up and play. They were so engaged and LOVED using it!
No whiteboard? No problem. The IPEVO Interactive Whiteboard System, or IS-01, transforms most any flat surface into an interactive whiteboard. Pair IS-01 with a computer and projector – even portable or short-throw projectors – and in just a few simple steps you can draw and annotate on a projected "board" large enough for the entire class – up to 100"!
IS-01 is made up of two devices: the Sensor Cam and the Interactive Pen. The Sensor Cam detects the physical location of the Pen and sends this information to your computer, which then translates the Pen’s motion into cursor motion. Cursor movements, mouse clicks, and mouse drags can all be accomplished in real time, meaning you’ll be able to control what’s on screen, just as if you were at the computer.
The free IPEVO Annotator software can be used in combination with a wide variety of other applications. Draw, write and annotate onto images on the screen in real time using an intuitive drawing toolkit. Or, create a blank whiteboard to turn your projector screen into a true interactive whiteboard.
Additionally, IPEVO document cameras like the Point 2 View or Ziggi-HD Plus are perfect companions to IS-01. Capture real-time video for documents, textbooks, artwork, 3D objects, handwritten notes, math equations, or anything else.
IS-01 is small enough to be transported between classrooms or even slipped into a pencil case for remote presentations. Introducing IS-01 into a new environment is a breeze, and a new setup can be accomplished in minutes. The Sensor Cam has a wide range of acceptable distances and can be affixed directly to ceiling-mounted projectors or set on tables or AV carts.
Competing interactive whiteboards can cost a small fortune! Save money and create dynamic new ways to learn with the IS-01 Interactive Whiteboard System.
Please note: Computer and projector are not included in the package. You need to have an existing computer and projector to pair with the IS-01.

Order now and receive a FREE Extension Wand with your IS-01 purchase. The Extension Wand fits into the back of the Interactive Pen to provide additional length. This makes it easy and convenient to use IS-01 for taller and longer whiteboard surfaces. But hurry! We have a limited supply of free Extension Wands for early purchasers only.
Most traditional interactive whiteboards use resistive or capacitive touch panels, which is the main reason why their cost cannot be lowered. The size and weight of the board also increases the freight (shipping) cost. As a result, these boards can cost thousands of dollars. By contrast, IS-01 is designed around infrared (IR), an inexpensive technology. A Sensor Cam, connected to the computer and directed toward the screen, captures IR signals sent out by the Interactive Pen. These signals are converted into coordinates which control the mouse cursor. With this innovative use of IR, IS-01 doesn't need a costly touch panel. Thus, we are able to manufacture IS-01 at an affordable price.
Please take these facts into consideration before making your purchase. Carefully weighing the benefits and limitations of IS-01 will help you decide which whiteboard setup is the right one for your needs.
Yes you can, but we do not recommend it due to the following considerations:
Yes, IS-01 can be used with IPEVO document cameras. Annotator has a button to launch Presenter software which displays real-time video from your doc cam. Documents, textbooks, artwork, 3D objects, handwritten notes, math equations, or anything else can be presented for sharing and annotating.
A soft projector screen is not recommended for use with IS-01 because the surface will move, which may affect Interactive Pen accuracy. When the Interactive Pen is pressed against the surface of the soft projector screen, the screen is likely to move. As a result, the Sensor Cam may capture the Interactive Pen at an incorrect location, resulting in an inaccurate cursor. With that said, if you are able to keep the screen steady or flat against the wall, pressing the IPEVO button on the Interactive Pen instead of directly touching the screen surface could still work for you.
IS-01 can be used with any image processing software and whiteboards. Any mouse-based software should work fine. Please note that IS-01 also comes with an interactive whiteboard software called Annotator which features virtual whiteboards, drawing tools such as shapes and colors, and integration with IPEVO doc cams and Presenter software. Annotator can also be used in combination with any other application.
IS-01 does not support multi-touch functions. Only one Interactive Pen will be captured at a time, regardless of the number of activated Interactive Pens. However, if you have two sets of computers and projectors running side by side, two IS-01s may be used separately.
IS-01 doesn't connect directly to your projector—it connects to your computer. Therefore, any projector that is compatible with your computer before adding IS-01 to your setup should display and calibrate without issue after connecting IS-01.
Extended screen display is only supported if you are using a Mac. Unfortunately, if you are using Windows, there is no way that our IS-01 could support extended screen display, not even with any third party application. It will only work in mirror mode.
We have USB 2.0 Extension Cable (16 Feet) and USB 2.0 Active Extension Cable (32 Feet), they are both tested compatible with IS-01. USB 2.0 Extension Cable (16 Feet) and IS-01 combination is known incompatible with Macbooks manufactured after 2013. If you have such Macbooks, please select the USB 2.0 Active Extension Cable (32 Feet) instead.
Our IS-01 Interactive Whiteboard System complies with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive, and is manufactured, sold and disposed of in a safe and environmentally friendly manner.

WEEE compliance statement (PDF)I used the website abcya.com and we decided to play money bingo. I had each of the kids come up and play. They were so engaged and LOVED using it!
The first time I used it was when I was teaching a lesson on one point perspective. The students liked being able to come up and trace over the drawings to get the feel of the perspective up close.
We are loving our new interactive whiteboard! it gives my students a chance to interact at any time, and keeps them focused.
I did take a picture of me using it at a teacher's meeting. Thank you, again! :)
The Interactive Whiteboard System has changed my classroom completely. We have the opportunity to work on class projects that are interactive and exciting for the students.
They all want to work with the "magic wand" -- that's their wording for the IPEVO IS-01 Interactive Whiteboard System. I knew it would be beneficial in engaging kids with our lessons but I had no idea there would be a hidden benefit: great behavior.
It was so easy to use and really drew the students into the lesson! It worked on the concrete wall in the library, as well as the whiteboard in my classroom! Awesome!
I was able to create a interactive lesson with parents regarding how they can help their children and support the classroom. Thank you IPEVO.
The students' eyes lit up when they saw something new and interactive they could use in the classroom. I have never seen so many students truly engaged to a math lesson and prepared to use a new piece of technology.
