The main roller has a diameter larger than (at least not less than twice) the diameter of the driven rollers to ensure a space for forming the folded portion. A portion of the drawing sheet is exposed through an opening of a frame for serving as a drawing plane. The folded portion contributes to providing a total of four drawing planes. Therefore, it is possible to provide the multi-plane electronic whiteboard apparatus with a simple structure and at a low cost.Field of SearchElectrochromic elementsDISPLAY PERIPHERAL INTERFACE INPUT DEVICE Cursor mark position control device Touch panel Including optical detection With alignment or calibration capability (i.e., parallax problem) Position coordinate determination for writing (e.g., writing digitizer pad, stylus, or circuitry) Writing digitizer pad Inductive | |
