WACOM Introduces Pen-And-Paper Feel Digital Pen Display, Based On Electromagnetic Resonance (EMR) Technology
Keys to Success for Visual Learning
We are beginning to see the future of standard classroom in creating the content, leveraging its contents for secondary use and conducting classes interactively.
Teachers no longer use a blackboard and chalk, but they draw diagrams, add annotations and write formulas interactively in real-time on prepared materials while presenting without looking back to write on the board.
However, it has been the biggest challenge to provide writing experience real-time on digital devices. To overcome this challenge, Wacom has developed pen-and-paper feel digital pen display, based on Electromagnetic Resonance (EMR) technology.
The EMR technology helps user to comfortably rest his palm on display screen and write like you do with a pen and paper. And, the pen ink is replaced by digital ink which makes digital hand writing more human.
With this technological progress, the materials for the class are created digitally with the freedom the digital pen offers, which can be viewed afterwards via PC and even on mobile devices in the cloud digital platform. This kind of digital classroom even breaks the barrier of place and time zone differences.
Wacom’s interactive pen displays have been used across various sectors and industries including classrooms, training rooms and online content studios for more than three decades over 150 countries and regions. With this many years of accumulated knowledge and experience, they can support different styles of learning and different methods of teaching such as Interactive classrooms, flipped learning and distance education.
