The whiteboard tool we’ve come to depend on in the classroom, the SMART Board, is now making inroads with senior living and care settings. But rather than being forced to relearn basic arithmetic, older adults are using this tech to enhance their health and wellbeing, developers said.

The interactive wall display can be used within senior living communities and skilled nursing facilities in several ways, from education to entertainment.
Activities could range from providing an interactive lunch menu to letting residents “feed fish” as the whiteboard turns into a virtual aquarium, SMART executives recently explained to the McKnight’s Tech Daily.
