The YA-W72M uses the Anoto pattern-scanning digital pen, which features excellent tracking and high levels of precision. It displays detailed text clearly with minimal positional error, making handwritten input simple and stress-free. And you can switch between a stylus refill or ballpoint-pen refill as the pen tip.
 

 

Anoto pattern-scanning digital pen
The Anoto patterns output onto a screen or onto paper are made up of rows of individual dots, and by scanning those dot patterns, the digital pen can accurately determine their coordinate locations on the paper. The tip of the pen has a built-in CMOS camera that photographs the patterns on the screen or paper. The processor in the pen then processes the location data and sends it to your computer via Bluetooth. In this way, your annotations can be fed to the projector and displayed on the screen.

The YA-W72M uses a large 72-inch screen that is equivalent to a normal blackboard. The carrying case makes it easy to carry, so much easier than moving a conventional whiteboard on casters. And the magnets on the back of the screen mean you can have it ready for projection simply by sticking it onto an existing blackboard or steel wall. It’s ready to use in no time.

Projection data is printed out onto special paper using Anoto patterns. Anything you write on that paper with the digital pen can be projected onto the screen. This allows you to directly access the projection screen via handheld materials, so you can continue your explanation even when you’re away from the screen, making it that much easier to talk and annotate your presentation at the same time.

The YA-W72M supports written input from up to 4 digital pens at the same time. Handwritten content is projected onto the screen in real time, allowing everyone involved to share their information. Teachers can correct their students' answers on the spot, different departments can write color-coded comments on the same drawing -- the applications are endless.
