Adonit introduced its new stylus technology, Pixelpoint™, during Evernote's EC3 Conference on Thursday. The first stylus to be powered by Pixelpoint, the Jot Script, is already on sale and the company announced plans for future Pixelpoint™ models including Jot Touch and Adobe's Project Mighty hardware.
"We've developed Pixelpoint to sit at the center of our next generation of styluses. As touch screens evolve, Pixelpoint is a platform to power styluses with the ability to work from my tablet, to my computer, to a collaborative wall," said Kris Perpich, CXO and Co-founder of Adonit. "Styluses sit at the center of visual creation. Until now precision has been the barrier to creating and capturing ideas intuitively in a mobile digital age. Through key partnerships with Evernote and Adobe, we look to build tightly integrated stylus experiences that change the way you use your touch screen."
Pixelpoint technology has enabled the first fine point stylus on the market with a 1.9 mm tip, which is 70 percent smaller than all other iOS styluses. The Bluetooth LE, accelerometer, and Adonit's SDK work seamlessly to place the ink point directly under the tip and improve the overall control on the screen. Pixelpoint™ technology will guarantee precision in every line, letter and signature.
While fingers and rubber styluses feel more like markers or crayons, Pixelpoint helps create a true digital pen. The tip's material was hand-picked to mimic the drag of a pen on paper, giving you more control and better expression in every stroke.
The technology works by detecting the unique capacitance signature of each iOS screen, and inverting the signature when the stylus sends its signal back. This allows users to quickly turn on the stylus and begin writing or note-taking without much setup.
Pixelpoint is compatible with all iOS devices, but the precision improves when using an iOS app that has integrated Adonit's SDK. The contact detection switch relays angles and coordinates through the accelerometer to the app, providing you unsurpassed accuracy on Bluetooth 4 devices.
