Digital tablet, also known as drawing tablet, drawing tablet, hand-painted tablet, etc., is a type of computer input device. It usually consists of a tablet and a pressure-sensitive pen. It is used as a handwriting tablet, etc. Unconventional input products are similar and are targeted at a certain user group.
Differences:
1. Different functions
Hand-drawn tablets are used for painting creation, just like a painter’s drawing board and brush, which we often see in animated movies Realistic pictures and lifelike characters are drawn one by one using a digital tablet.
In addition to being used for inputting text, symbols, graphics, etc., the handwriting pad can also provide a cursor positioning function, so the handwriting pad can replace the keyboard and mouse at the same time and become an independent input tool.
2. Different parameters
The main parameters of hand-drawn tablets include pressure sensing, coordinate accuracy, reading rate, resolution, etc. Among them, the pressure sensing series is the key parameter. The tablet must be pressure sensitive.
In terms of pen design, handwriting tablets are divided into two types: pressure-sensitive and non-pressure-sensitive. Pressure-sensitive writing tablets can sense the strength of the stylus on the writing board, thus producing different thicknesses. strokes. The tablet's pressure sensitivity is optional.
3. Different levels of pressure sensitivity
The hand-painted tablet has three levels of pressure sensitivity, namely 512 (entry), 1024 (advanced), and 2048 (expert).
There are two types of pressure-sensitive electromagnetic plates for handwriting tablets: 256 levels and 512 levels, which means they can express 256 levels of pressure and 512 levels of pressure.
