Body: <p>I am a coach at a small high school. We are starting a chess club. We have Epson BrightLink projectors with the interactive boards. Is there a way we can have a chess board displayed on the whiteboard that allows a finger to move pieces while also using a pen to annotate?

Comments.Text: Question. Why do you need touch feedback controls? Your students will get better at notation if you force them to call out the candidate moves and you update the board on your computer, yes? If you want a fun toy for the students, you could get a large-screened tablet or a normal display board.

Comments.Text: Standing at the board and using fingers to move the pieces will keep the mind more engaged than just sitting and speaking. This is just my opinion, and from what I've observed while teaching. Later when we learn the formal chess notation, I can have them call it out as they move the pieces.

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2019-09-24)
  
  I am a coach at a small high school. We are starting a chess club. We have Epson BrightLink projectors with the interactive boards. Is there a way we can have a chess board displayed on the whiteboard that allows a finger to move pieces while also using a pen to annotate? An example can be seen [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2SARMDtDv8).
