September is the start of the school year, and schools are getting their best chance to upgrade their teaching environment. Smart blackboards, the core equipment of modern classrooms, are replacing traditional and ordinary whiteboards at an unprecedented rate.
With the in-depth development of education informatization, simple electronic display equipment can no longer meet the diversified teaching needs, customization, interaction and multifunction have become the core features of intelligent blackboard in the new era.
In particular, smart blackboards that support non-standard size customization are becoming a new favorite in the market for schools with special classroom space or specific teaching needs.
01 Smart blackboard market status
Smart learning devices are the biggest bright spot in this year’s “back-to-school economy”. Smart blackboards, as a large item in the classroom, have seen a peak in their purchase volume before the start of the semester.
Many schools are renovating their classrooms during the summer vacation to meet the teaching needs of the new semester. The market size of smart blackboards is growing steadily and the technology is constantly updated.
In the recent brand selection activity, Huashi Weiye Smart Blackboard won the title of “Top 10 Smart Blackboard Brands” with its strong r&d innovation ability and user satisfaction.
This shows that the market recognition of smart blackboard is increasing, and the brand effect is gradually forming. For integrated industrial and trade enterprises, this is a huge market opportunity.
02 Core functions of smart blackboard
Modern smart blackboards are no longer simple display devices, but comprehensive teaching platforms integrating various functions. Integrated design is the primary feature of smart blackboards, with no obvious joint marks on the whole machine and a simple and elegant appearance.
The smart blackboard integrates traditional blackboard writing with intelligent interactive experiences, incorporating application modules such as presentation, writing, human-computer interaction, and content sharing. Teachers can switch to the LCD interactive display state with one click while supporting chalk and whiteboard pen writing.
Super whiteboard teaching software can quickly identify the documents on the local machine and hard disk, and automatically classify them, supporting PPT, Word, PDF, Excel, pictures and other document presentations.
Multi-touch is a core feature of smart blackboards, utilizing capacitive technology that supports at least 20-point touch on Windows and 10-point touch on Android systems. This enables multiple students to participate in interactive teaching simultaneously, significantly enhancing classroom engagement and interactivity.
03 Analysis of customization advantages
For different teaching environments and needs, **standardized products often fail to fully meet practical demands**. This is where the advantages of customized smart blackboards come into play.
Custom sizing is one of the most common requirements. Smart Blackboards offer multiple size specifications: 86-inch, 98-inch, 100-inch, 110-inch, and 120-inch extra-large displays, ideal for classrooms in vocational colleges and universities; 86-inch, 75-inch, and 65-inch models are suitable for larger indoor spaces in junior high and high schools, as well as kindergarten or smaller classroom environments across various scenarios.
The overall size of the product can be customized: width: 4200mm, height: 1300mm, thickness: 72mm. This flexibility makes the smart blackboard can adapt to various sizes of classroom space, without waste or incompatibility problems.
Function customization is also a key advantage. Some schools may prioritize anti-glare features, while others might focus more on remote teaching capabilities. Customized smart blackboards can be configured with specific modules to meet these needs, achieving the best performance-to-price ratio.
04 Detailed explanation of technical parameters
The technical specifications of smart blackboards directly determine their user experience and teaching effectiveness. The display features an A-standard LED LCD screen (16:9 aspect ratio) with a minimum size of 86 inches, offering an effective display area of 1895 (H)×1065 (V). The resolution is 3840×2160, with a brightness of 410 lumens and contrast ratio of 1200:1.
The interface typically includes multiple input/output ports such as HDMI, VGA, and YPBPR. External signal ports: HDMI*3, VGA*1, YPBPR*2. Built-in audio speakers: 2×15W. Control interfaces: USB*8, RS232*1, etc.
The smart blackboard features **imported nano-tempered glass protection**, supporting both whiteboard marker writing and dust-free chalk writing. With advanced light filtering technology, it effectively blocks harmful light sources to reduce eye strain, creating a softer visual experience.
Surface anti-glare technology is formed, which can not form a reflected image on the surface and does not affect the visual picture.
05 Back-to-School Shopping Guide
The back-to-school season is the peak time for smart board procurement, and it’s important to choose the right product. First, **evaluate classroom space and installation conditions** to determine the appropriate size.
For large classrooms in universities and vocational colleges, consider ultra-large 98-inch, 100-inch, 110-inch, or even 120-inch displays. For regular classrooms in primary and secondary schools, an 86-inch model is a balanced choice. In kindergartens or smaller spaces, 75-inch or 65-inch models are recommended.
Second, **focus on aligning core functions with instructional needs**. If schools already have abundant multimedia resources, smart boards emphasizing compatibility and scalability would be more appropriate. For teaching teams skilled in interactive pedagogy, multifunctional touchscreens and dynamic features prove particularly crucial.
Thirdly, it is crucial to prioritize after-sales service and training support. As sophisticated electronic devices, smart blackboards require suppliers to provide reliable technical support and maintenance services. Equally important is the need for comprehensive teacher training programs. Only through these measures can we ensure full utilization of smart blackboards and maximize their educational value.

07 Future trends
The development prospect of intelligent blackboard is very broad. The integration of artificial intelligence technology is an important direction, and the future intelligent blackboard may integrate more intelligent voice recognition, gesture control and other functions.
Human-computer interaction experience will be more natural and smooth, reducing learning costs and improving teaching efficiency. The upgrade of display technology is also an inevitable trend. Display panels with higher resolution, higher brightness and better color reproduction will continuously improve the visual experience.
At the same time, eye care technology will also get more attention to reduce the impact of long-term use on teachers ‘and students’ eyesight.
The integration of the Internet of Things and cloud services will make smart blackboards the core hub of smart classrooms. They can connect and manage other devices in the classroom, such as lights, air conditioners, curtains, etc., to create the best teaching environment.
At the same time, through cloud service, teaching resources can be shared and remote teaching can be carried out conveniently.
With the deepening of the digital education strategy, smart blackboard has changed from a luxury to a necessity.
Many middle schools in China and abroad have explicitly encouraged the use of intelligent teaching equipment in their school equipment list, and prohibited luxury stationery from entering the school, which reflects the development direction of intelligent and practical educational equipment.
Choosing a suitable smart blackboard can not only improve the effect of classroom teaching, but also create a more modern and interesting learning environment for students.
