Luidia Lets Amazon Kindle Users View eBeam Interactive Whiteboard Content
SAN CARLOS, Calif. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Luidia, Inc., the award-winning developer of eBeam
interactive whiteboard technology, today announced that its eBeam
software now allows users to send a wide variety of interactive
whiteboard-generated content directly to their Amazon Kindle or Kindle
DX. Kindle is Amazon's wireless reading device that allows customers to
download books, blogs, magazines and newspapers to a crisp,
high-resolution electronic paper display that looks and reads like real
paper. Luidia is the first interactive whiteboard developer to provide
this feature, which lets teachers, students and business users send
presentations, lessons and notes to Amazon Kindle devices, the
bestselling product across the millions of items sold by Amazon.
Luidia users have long been able to save content from whiteboard
sessions - including material generated by or annotated with dry-erase
markers - to laptops and other personal computers. Now, Luidia's
software makes saving whiteboard content to both a Kindle and Kindle DX
as easy as choosing "Send to Kindle" on a pull-down menu. Students can
review class lessons, parents can see what children have studied in
class, and businesses can review presentations and brainstorming
sessions on their Kindle. This new feature is not only convenient, it
also is a paperless, environmentally friendly alternative to taking
conventional notes.
"As consumer technologies evolve, so too does eBeam," said Luidia CEO
Rafi Holtzman. "Educators and corporations could already capture
everything that takes place in a classroom or meeting with an eBeam
system. Now they can also use a Kindle or Kindle DX to review those
lessons and presentations - wherever and whenever they want."
Luidia's "Send to Kindle" feature is included in the latest free eBeam
software upgrade, available at http://www.luidia.com/downloads.html.
Whiteboard content can be sent from any Windows computer in
a choice of formats, including PDF, JPEG and BMP.
