The Smart Surface Solution, unlike other rear projection based competitors, is based on a number of different technologies that enable a large number of form factors for different applications. Their solutions are the first to use laser-based detection in addition to the standard IR illumination, and stripped LCD based display technology in the place of IR projection. The Smart Surface solution is the only full-function surface computing solution in Malaysia, and on a per-inch screen size basis, has a significant cost advantage over competing international solutions.
