1 Overview
Thank you for choosing to purchase this efficient, quality product!
The STAEDTLER digital pen allows all handwritten notes and
sketches on regular paper to be recorded and stored in the internal
Flash memory. This proves particularly practical whenever there is no
computer immediately at hand and you would like to retain
spontaneous thoughts or important matters. Recorded notes can then
be uploaded onto the computer, tablet or smartphone via Bluetooth®
or USB connection.
Comprising of a writing implement and a receiver, the STAEDTLER
digital pen combines ultrasonic and infrared technologies with
sophisticated algorithms. This provides a precise tracking and
positioning system which traces movement of the pen tip on any
surface and converts it into a vector image of the user's handwriting.
The digital pen transfers this vector image to the receiver for storage.
Note!
Please refer to the user manual for more detailed information
regarding all practical functions of the device!
