2.3 Digital pens

These pens write normally on paper and use electronic position sensing. In the case of the

Anoto pen [http://www.anoto.com/filearchive/2/2853/Anoto%20technology.mpg] the infrared

sensed position is sent to the computer by a Bluetooth link. Currently this type of solution

appears to be a custom offering rather than for the mass market. Other electronic pen

solutions require special paper.

2.4 Tablet PC

A Tablet PC is a lightweight computer, which allows the user handwrite notes, enter data and

navigate by touching the screen using a digitiser pen on the screen. Most tablet PCs have

handwriting recognition.

Tablet PCs make good flip chart replacements, but are not a natural input method for some,

are bulky and too expensive.

3 Recommendation

For the reasons given in clause 2, the most appropriate graphical input device is the digital

pad as it uses a conventional pen and paper approach, whilst giving electronic capture. The

resolution and drawing capabilities of the digital pad aren’t as good as a graphic tablet, but

flip charts aren’t used for precision drawing either.

In the US, letter sized digital pads are available as the ACECAD DigiMemo L2, Adesso

Cyberpad 8.5X11 and SolidTek DM-L2 DigiMemo L2. These digital pads can be bought from

various Web suppliers e.g. Amazon. An 8-1/2-by-11-Inch Digital Pad in a protective folder can

currently be bought for under 200 $. The smaller sized 6-by-9-Inch Digital Pad in a protective

folder can be bought for under 140 $.
