OVERVIEW

This stylus is designed for active digitizers. More specifically, it is
designed for tablet surfaces using Wacom active digitizer with white tip.
Wacom is a Japanese company, which pioneered digitizer technology in
1980s. For decades they held as much as 93% of the digitizer market.
But since some of their patents expired, other companies have come
into this arena. Today Wacom still holds 50% of the market. What does
this mean for you? Wacom and this stylus works with maybe 40% of
the digitizers out in the market today.
This pen contains Wacom technology available in some consumer
devices. For example, Microsoft's Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2.
By integrating a special sensor into the touch screen and designing a
stylus to work well in it, Wacom digitizers offer a variety of features
such as:
1. Pressure sensitivity: The most important feature that a
Wacom‐based digitizer layer offers is the ability to detect
different levels of pressure.
2. Palm rejection: When you're using your stylus to draw on
your screen, the tablet can perform "palm rejection," ignoring
your touches and allowing your palm to rest on the screen.
3. Additional features: This pen has an eraser on the other end,
and flipping it over and rubbing the eraser on the screen will
send an "erase" signal so you can erase things you have
drawn in drawing applications. Holding a button on the pen
and tapping the screen will perform a right‐click. The digitizer
layer can also detect when you're hovering the pen over the
screen, allowing you to perform hover actions.
4. No battery required: The stylus doesn't need to include a
battery, so you won't have to worry about charging it.
Note: Check the specification of your device for calibration and
compatibility functions.
