The iSketchnote may be one of the most amazing iPad accessories ever created. The iSketchnote is a cover for the tablet that turns physical writing into digital copy. It does this using what its makers have dubbed “IKSIN Technology.” In a nutshell, the case uses a giant sensor board that transmits signals from a special pen to the iPad.

What makes the iSketchnote pen so special? It has a magnet inside of it that allows the pen to communicate with the sensor board. Those who like to write and draw in multiple colors will be able to do so as the cover can detect different colors. Drawing or writing on a tablet is awkward at best, which is what makes the iSketchnote so great. The makers of this device took it to Kickstarter, and it unsurprisingly received and overwhelming amount of support. It has raised over $100,000 (the original goal was $35,00) and still has a month of fundraising left.
