Publicity

Last week we sent a press release to the educational market as we strongly believe in the added value of using the Sphinx in the classroom.
In schools, the iPad is increasingly seen as a versatile learning tool that makes knowledge more accessible and enables study materials to be adapted to each student’s learning abilities.
Using the Sphinx in classrooms enables iPads to be transformed into ergonomic desktops. Students can work together or alone on papers and presentations on the iPad with a keyboard and mouse.
