Whiteboard Marker Styluses

Scribbly Stylus Makes Tablet Interaction Simple as Primary School

— June 10, 2011 — Tech
Touchscreen technology is pretty remarkable, but it's often easy to miss that foolproof tactile quality when interacting with cutting-edge gadgets. The Scribbly Stylus was designed with a little nostalgia in mind. Since the widespread use of PowerPoint in offices, few people have bothered to pick up a marker since their days in school.

Designed to be thick and easily gripped, the Scribbly Stylus is perfect for use with the iPhone, iPad or virtually any tablet. The display tracks the tip's movement as you press it onto the screen, and it applies much more direct and concentrated pressure than your fingers could manage. The Scribbly Stylus affords more effective use of your electronics, and will keep your handwriting up to scratch with its digital pen feature.
Trend Themes
1. Nostalgic Stylus - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop styluses that are designed to mimic the tactile experience of using a whiteboard marker, creating a nostalgic and fun interaction with touchscreen devices.
2. Enhanced Precision - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create styluses that provide more direct and concentrated pressure on touchscreen devices, allowing for more precise and accurate input.
3. Digital Pen Integration - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate digital pen features into styluses, enabling users to maintain their handwriting skills while using electronic devices.
Industry Implications
1. Technology - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Technology companies can capitalize on the demand for styluses that provide a nostalgic and fun interaction with touchscreen devices.
2. Education - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Education institutions can integrate styluses with digital pen features into their curriculum, allowing students to practice and improve their handwriting skills on electronic devices.
3. E-commerce - Disruptive innovation opportunity: E-commerce platforms can offer styluses with enhanced precision as a complementary accessory to touchscreen devices, providing users with a more accurate and efficient input method.
