Make classroom participation more fun with Acer TeachSmart LED lights. For example, teachers can pose multiple choice questions to the class, and students can answer them with corresponding colored lights for all to see.
TravelMate B series notebooks are designed to enhance the learning experience. From their robust construction to solid features, they help maximise the potential of the classroom.
Built-in manageability and security
Easy manageability is a key feature. The TravelMate B117 comes with Acer ControlCenter, where users can easily find the latest system information and check if updates are available.
Acer ControlCenter not only makes it easier to manage your PC, but it helps to detect and fix any problem promptly. Acer ProShield allows users to maintain their credentials, data protection and web accounts. For added security, users can log in via webcam and face recognition technology.
A Kensington lock slot enables the notebook to be secured to the desk, while TPM (Trusted Platform Module) 1.2 hardware security assures the integrity of the platform, disk encryption and password protection.
Comfortable computing
Packing Intel® Pentium® or Celeron® processors, Intel® HD graphics and up to 4GB of DDR3L memory, the TravelMate B117 allows students to tackle school projects and homework with ease. A solid hinge which opens up to 180 degrees provides a splendid and comfortable viewing experience.
The full-size keyboard makes all the difference when you need to write at length, while the new sleek Precision Touchpad offers more precise interaction.
The 11.6" Acer ComfyView™ Anti-glare display makes for a crisper view with richer colours and higher contrast, even outdoors, while Acer BluelightShield™ technology reduces harmful blue-light emission, so protecting users’ eyes.
Built for Education
Designed to fit into any classroom environment, the TravelMate B117 features a ruggedized frame with a rubber strip that encloses the chassis to protect the device from unexpected bumps and drops. The keyboard is spill-resistant with a water drainage design that protects against accidental spills.
Weighing only 1.35 kg and measuring 22.3 mm thin it can be put into any backpack.
Liquid in. Liquid out
Spilling liquid on a notebook is quite a common accident, especially with kids who might be less careful with their devices. To avoid any damage, the TravelMate B117 comes with a drainage design that channels liquids out, keeping internal components dry. This smart system can drain as much as 330 ml of liquid.
The liquid resistant area includes keyboard, touchpad and hinge frame
