The conceptual 'Quo' digital highlighter has been designed by Possibility Design as a handy device for students and avid readers alike that would provide them with a way to optimize their retention of text as they read.
The compact device draws design inspiration from the analog highlighter marker and would make use of a scanning functionality to let users keep track of the most pertinent information they read. This information could then be uploaded to the user's smartphone, tablet or laptop and easily revisited later on without having to endlessly flip through pages looking for bright markings.
The conceptual 'Quo' digital highlighter maintains a compact design that could be kept docked when not in use to ensure it's always ready for impromptu reading or study sessions.
