The Interactive Media Solutions Group has gained a reputation as an aggressive innovator in hardware and software design for interactive communications, delivering a high value, low cost solution backed by the most advanced technology in the market. Applications include education, meetings, conferences, videoconferences, training, symposiums and trade shows.
In the Interactive Media Solutions Group, systems and their associated software permit presenters to run computer applications and add free-hand annotations to the displayed graphics using pen-type devices. The annotated data can be saved for later review and distributed in a variety of formats including .html, .jpg, .bmp and .png. The product family allows for interactive communications and data sharing across local and wide area networks.
In 1999 Hitachi Software introduced the StarBoard® electronic white board, combining world-class handwriting recognition and multimedia technologies. This system allows mouse operation and on-screen pen writing in addition to sharing personal computer data by projecting it onto the digital board.
The T-15XL and T-17SXL interactive displays allow presenters to run applications and annotate directly on a 15" or 17" flat panel display with the images duplicated on other networked systems, plasma displays or projected from the host computer on a traditional whiteboard or screen.
Recent product introductions insure that the Interactive Media Solutions Group of Hitachi Software Engineering America will continue push the envelope not only in terms of bringing digital technology to bear on the interactive presentations marketplace, but also setting new benchmarks in performance value.
