The SMART Board 685 interactive whiteboard is a wide-format interactive whiteboard with a 16:10 aspect ratio that measures 87 inches (221 cm) on the diagonal. This extra wide format offers 20 percent more working space than the earlier SMART Board 680 interactive whiteboard and is a solution for teachers who would like to adopt the 16:10 wide-screen format.

Adding to SMART’s existing wide-format interactive whiteboard offering – the SMART Board 685 joins the 690 as an interactive whiteboard with a 16:9 aspect ratio, making SMART the only company to offer two wide-format interactive whiteboards. The SB685 caters to the growing number of teachers and presenters using native 16:10 laptops and projectors. The 685 also offers an expansion slot on the pen tray, enabling teachers to easily upgrade their hardware by adding other SMART products. Like all SMART Board interactive whiteboards, the 685 comes with feature-rich Notebook collaborative learning software, the core application for the creation and delivery of lesson activities. Write, erase and perform mouse functions with your finger, a pen or an eraser without the need for proprietary tools.

You can also capture your work to SMART Notebook software as a screen shot that you can edit, or save your notes directly into several software applications, including Windows versions of Microsoft PowerPoint, Word and Excel, or AutoCAD software.
