Digitization of education has resulted in the emergence of various technological innovations that have improved the learning process and student-teacher interactions. Among all other innovations, the introduction of interactive whiteboards (IWBs) has gained the most success, driving the growth of the education technology market. IWBs are rapidly emerging as one of the most popular and successful technologies in classroom environments, as they allow users to write or draw on surfaces, print images, and save or distribute documents

over networks. This technique makes teaching easier and more interesting than using conventional whiteboards.However, the market faces a threat from substitutes such as interactive flat panels (IFPs) and projectors that are now widely being used in place of IWBs. The availability of similar functionalities in the latter devices is leading to the replacement of IWBs. Vendors need to bring in innovative features to hold a competitive edge against these products. The provision of IWB software and cloud technology has widened the utilization of IWBs and is considered as some of the developments noticed in the market.
