This chapter provides additional considerations and details for installing your interactive whiteboard
system.

Choosing a location

Choose a location for your interactive whiteboard system that’s far from bright light sources, such as
windows and strong overhead lighting. Bright light sources can cause distracting shadows on your
interactive whiteboard and can reduce the contrast of the projected image.
Select a wall with a flat, regular surface and sufficient clearance to accommodate your interactive
whiteboard system. Install the projector and your interactive whiteboard on the same flat surface. For
best presentation alignment, mount your interactive whiteboard system in a location central to your
audience’s viewing direction. For mobile or adjustable installation options, contact your authorized
SMART reseller (smarttech.com/where).
