Tech-vergence
High-tech meets low-tech with merge of physical instruments & digitalization
Implications - As touchscreen devices continue to be heavily embraced by tech consumers, the market is seeing an increase in innovations promoting the convergence of high-tech with low-tech -- namely, digital devices and styluses. A variety of innovative styluses that enhance the use of touchscreen devices are now readily available, and brands are creating gadgets (for example, the Samsung Galaxy Note), that are specifically designed for manual writing or drawing as well. This "tech-vergence" shows that in the face of expanding digitalization, there is still a need for tools that help to bridge the gap, and enhance the connection, between manual actions and digital output.
