Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the SMART Board Mini interactive podium?
    The SMART Board Mini is a compact 27" interactive podium designed for presenters, instructors, and operators who need to face their audience while staying in full control of live content. It combines a 4K UHD display, built-in 4K camera, 8-microphone array, and SMART Ink annotation software in a single device that can be deployed across briefing rooms, training facilities, council chambers, and classrooms.
  • Is the SMART Board Mini a government-specific product?
    No. The SMART Board Mini is an interactive podium available across education, business, and government environments. It is not TAA compliant, NDAA compliant, or available through the GSA Schedule. For government applications requiring TAA or NDAA compliant interactive displays, SMART recommends the MX Pro series with iQ TAA or the M Pro High Secure series TAA. The SMART Board Mini remains well suited for government training, DoDEA classrooms, and administrative environments where compliance is not a procurement requirement.
  • What government environments is the SMART Board Mini best suited for?
    The SMART Board Mini works well across a range of government environments, including training facilities, briefing rooms, council chambers, public hearing rooms, and DoDEA classrooms, anywhere a presenter needs to engage their audience directly while interacting with live content. Its compact footprint and flexible deployment options make it adaptable across permanent and temporary installations of any size.
  • Can the SMART Board Mini be used for government training programs?
    Yes. The SMART Board Mini is well suited for instructor-led government training, including new hire onboarding, policy briefings, professional development sessions, and scenario-based exercises. Instructors can annotate live content, engage in-room and remote participants simultaneously, and maintain direct eye contact with their audience throughout a session.
  • How does the SMART Board Mini support hybrid government meetings?
    The SMART Board Mini includes a built-in 4K UHD camera, 8-microphone array, and 12W sound output, supporting clear, reliable communication across hybrid sessions. Combined with SMART TeamWorks, all major conferencing platforms are unified into a single consistent interface, so in-room presenters and remote participants stay aligned regardless of which platform a session runs on.
