=About=

In 1986, David Martin and Nancy Knowlton were in New York when David began telling her about a product idea he had. This idea gave birth to, SMART. SMART was originally a Canadian distributor for a US projector company before it began making the whiteboards. The revenue that was made from the projector sales went into the research and development of the SMART Board. SMART Board interactive whiteboard, would combine the simplicity of a whiteboard with the power of a computer. SMART Board interactive whiteboard was the first board to provide touch control over computer applications and the ability to write over Microsoft applications. These boards brought interactive technology to every classroom, meeting room and boardroom. Three patents were granted for this new form of technology.

2015 marks the 29th anniversary of the SMART company and the 24th anniversary of the Smart Board interactive whiteboard.
