Product testing the Wacom Inkling

In this video I take the wireless digital ballpoint pen the "Inkling" by WACOM for a test drive. Product website: http://inkling.wacom.eu/ The Inkling is a digital ballpoint pen designed to digitally record every stroke that is made with the pen tip on physical media like paper, for example. As you can see in the video, my test-run is good, but not GREAT. There are a lot of considerations one has to abide by in order to even get decent results. As I drew this in my sketchbook, and had to really make sure I was aware of where my hands were and that I wasn't blocking the line of sight to the recording device. It missed quite a lot of strokes, and was misaligned in the end. Neat toy, but not what I would call a proper professional tool. My score of the Wacom Inkling: C or C- There's a reason this product was discontinued. #fnook #andypowell #animator #sketch #drawing #character #cartoon #sketchbook #wacom #inkling #digital #ballpoint #pen #ink #cartoonist #review #product #art #animation #animating

I've reposted my test drive recording of the Wacom Inkling to my VIDME channel. My thoughts are in the description.
