Demonstrated this morning and easy to use, when
the lid is on, the pen immediately switches off,
when you remove the lid, the pen automatically
turns on!
"Originally the pen was used in Europe for
emails and as a sticky notes system. It is already
used in hospitals and in services companies such
as electrical and air conditioning outlets.
When I heard about it, I decided to apply it to
business world. You need to be mobile and you need
to use paper - for legal requirements, signatures
etc," he says.
Once the championship is over, Crendal, who
comes from a technical and sailing background,
plans to launch a special sailing package for
events such as this Championship. The kit will
include a hardboard sailing folder, dot paper,
Bluetooth capable mobile phone, digital pen, and
course map - that simple.
To be used at this ISAF Grade 1 Laser World
Championship in tandem with the normal result
service, mark roundings will be available on the
official site as each race is in progress.
The Destiny Digital Pen system is expected to
make life a lot easier for race management and
event media managers like me, who sometimes don't
leave a job till late in the evening due fleet
size and the sometimes cumbersome systems we
usually use.
