Digital Pens

Reduces time and cost by capturing information onto your
existing forms, and instantly transfers data using special
digital paper and pen

This solution offers all the benefits of instant communication
using the mobile phone network but, rather than PDA, it uses a
digital pen and digital paper.

Using your existing forms printed onto special digital
paper, the user completes the form using a digital pen. As
the pen writes onto the paper it also captures the information
in digital format and transfers via a wireless Bluetooth link or docking station.
