Artists looking for a new digital sketchpad will want to check out the Wacom Sketcher. The Wacom Sketcher was designed by Massimo Battaglia and features increased sensitivity and the ability to turn physical drawings into digital ones.
The Wacom Sketcher would have a 12 inch screen and run off of an Android OS. The Sketcher would feature eight programmable buttons and would be able to be used by either left handed or right handed artists. Perhaps the most unique feature of Battaglia's design is its camera. The 5.0 megapixel camera of the Sketcher can photograph digital sketches and upload them onto the pad to be completed at a later time. The tablet would also be lightweight, weighing in at 1 1/2 pounds.
