BenQ, a global leader in display solutions for education, has announced its next generation of smart boards, the Google Enterprise Devices Licensing Agreement (EDLA)-certified BenQ Board Pro RP04 and the BenQ Board Master RM04. These smart boards are capable of enabling dynamic, effective, healthy, and secure education environments, featuring across-the-board functionality with the entire Google Mobile Services (GMS) ecosystem. BenQ’s boards are the only smart boards for education, with a complete range of health-centric ClassroomCare® features to foster healthy learning environments.

Futuresource Consulting, a market specialist in visual displays, confirms that BenQ held the top 1 market position in Interactive Flat Panel Displays (IFPD) in a wide range of countries, including the UAE, in the first half of 2023, as well as the top seller in the Higher Education market in the second quarter of 2023, holding a 35.68 percent market share. In Saudi Arabia and Australia, BenQ also held the number 1 market share in 2023 Q2, with 40.06 percent and 16.72 percent respectively.

This new generation of BenQ Boards offers schools effortless access to official Google services, including Google Play and Google Classroom, and provides classrooms with a seamless experience when using Google Search and other Android applications right on the BenQ Board’s large touchscreen interface. Educators can captivate young minds by writing and illustrating on the EZWrite 6 digital whiteboarding software, displaying along with inspiring multimedia lessons, while fostering a creative culture with InstaShare 2, which shares up to nine screens for a unique collaborative discussion environment.

BenQ showcases its distinctive values in the market with innovative ClassroomCare® technologies, an account management system (AMS), and a device management system (DMS). The new BenQ Boards safeguard healthy learning environments with ClassroomCare® by protecting users’ eyes from noxious blue light with the world-leading Eyesafe® Certified 2.0 screens, monitoring versatility with indoor air quality (IAQ) sensors, and even minimizing germ transmission with antimicrobial screens and peripherals. AMS allows teachers to easily log in with an NFC card or single sign-on (SSO) using existing school credentials and start a class instantly with lessons stored in the cloud. School IT admins can remotely update firmware, apps, and power settings for groups of BenQ devices, effectively reducing IT maintenance costs and the total cost of ownership (TCO) for schools.

BenQ’s unwavering commitment to innovation in education technology continues to positively impact the academic sector worldwide, enabling the next generation to cultivate the full potential of their 21st-century skills for the future workplace. As we ride this digital wave, the company eagerly anticipates a future where learning is not only meaningful and captivating but also transformative, profoundly enriching lives.

Jeffrey Liang, President, BenQ Asia Pacific, highlighted, “Our ironclad commitment to foster the most caring and futureproof education through BenQ’s cutting-edge interactive display solutions is the reason why BenQ has been the undisputed leader in highly demanding markets, such as Australia, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, India, and more."

He continued, “Furthermore, we reaffirm this long-term commitment with the launch of these EDLA-certified smart boards, seamlessly integrating the vast realm of Google Mobile Services into the hands of educators and their students. By bolstering teamwork and effective interaction in both physical and remote learning venues, our new smart boards will help the education industry take a great leap forward in its pursuit for excellence.”
