Anoto Digital Pen Technology Powers World's First Portable Sheet-Type Interactive Display

Anoto, the inventor of Digital Pen and Paper technology (DP&P), today announced that it is providing the technology behind the PLUS Vision Corp. portable sheet-type interactive display 'PLUS Wireless Interactive Panel UPIC.'

Lund, Sweden and Westborough, Mass (PRWEB) June 10, 2009 -- Anoto, the inventor of Digital Pen and Paper technology (DP&P), today announced that it is providing the technology behind the PLUS Vision Corp. portable sheet-type interactive display 'PLUS Wireless Interactive Panel UPIC.'

The PLUS UPIC is a handy interactive display which allows the user to operate a computer directly from a projected image by using a digital pen and a dot pattern printed on the surface of the display. The user can enjoy natural face-to-face communication with the audience and it is easy to add comments onto the projected image using the digital pen, and then save them in digital format. The "Touch & Draw" functionality allows the user to create "highlighter" marks or insert graphics onto areas of the projected content.

The sheet surface is made of a special material that minimizes the reflection and glare of a projector, making it an ideal projection screen. The entire back surface is a magnetic sheet allowing the wireless panel to be attached easily to many surfaces, including steel walls, whiteboards, chalkboards, etc.

"We are delighted to see the launch of this new meeting room application based on Anoto Digital Pen technology. As we've said before, this is an increasingly interesting area for us. We believe the innovative use of our technology can enhance the way we work and collaborate in meetings, making the process more interactive and efficient," says Anders Norling, CEO at Anoto Group AB.
