Versatile Electronic Pens

The Mimoto SmartPen Allows Consumers to Write the Old-Fashioned Way

— September 23, 2014 — Tech
Created by Mimoto Tech, the Mimoto SmartPen will appeal to those who enjoy writing the old fashioned way but want the convenience that comes with working on digital mediums.

The Mimoto SmartPen is a pen that can truly do it all. It can electronically store any handwritten texts via a receiver that connects to sensors located in the pen. When you download the Mimoto app and turn on your device's Bluetooth, the smart pen can sync with your smartphone or tablet and record your notes in real time. Lastly, if you purchase the USB touch screen receiver, Mimoto can be used on any computer as a stylus. To use Mimoto as a stylus, simply remove the ink and insert the stylus tip, plug in the touch screen receiver, install the software and that's it.

The Mimoto SmartPen has already surpassed its KickStarter goal, so expect to see it around soon.
