Google introduced Jamboard - a collaborative, digital whiteboard that makes it easy for teams to share ideas in real-time by moving the whiteboard to the cloud. Jamboard is bringing the same real-time collaboration found in G Suite, combined with the web, to your team’s brainstorms and meetings. You can work with teammates from across the world on other Jamboards or remotely use the smartphone or tablet companion app.

Jamboard offers access to Google Search and your team’s work in G Suite. You can grab images and content from the web and bring them straight into your "jam." Pull in work from Docs, Sheets and Slides, or add photos stored in Drive. To capture your ideas, Jamboard is packed with tools like sticky notes and stencils as well as intelligent features like handwriting and shape recognition.

In addition, Jamboard lets you take your work with you. When you "jam" with your colleagues, it lives in the cloud in Google Drive, so you can share what you’ve created or come back to iterate at anytime.

Jamboard is a 55-inch 4k display that features a quick touch response time. Combine this with a built-in HD camera, speakers and Wi-Fi, and you’re set up to collaborate and broadcast your work globally with Hangouts.

Jamboard’s touchscreen automatically recognizes the difference between using the stylus to sketch or the eraser to start over, and neither require batteries or pairing. Jamboard can also sense when you’re using your finger to wipe work off of the screen, just like a classic whiteboard (except you won’t get ink on your hand). The single-cable setup makes it easy to start creating quickly with Jamboard - just wheel it in, turn it on and start brainstorming.

Jamboard operates with an application that works on smartphones and tablets powered either by Google's Android software or Apple's operating system for iPhones and Pads. It won't work with Microsoft's Windows system, making it incompatible with Surface tablets and most personal computers.

While touch displays have traditionally been expensive, at under $6,000 USD, Jamboard is a competitively-priced way to transform your team’s meetings and will be available for purchase in 2017.
