A digital pen is an input device which captures the handwriting or brush strokes of a user, converts handwritten analog information created using "pen and paper" into digital data, enabling the data to be utilized in various applications. For example, the writing data can be digitized and uploaded to a computer and displayed on its monitor. The data can then be interpreted by handwriting software (OCR) and used in different applications or just as graphics.
A digital pen is generally larger and has more features than a stylus. Digital pens typically contain internal electronics, and have features such as touch sensitivity, input buttons, memory, writing data transmission capabilities, and electronic erasers.

Famous quotes containing the word pen:
“Its whether will ye be a rank robbers wife,
Or will ye die by my wee pen knife?
Its Ill not be a rank robbers wife,
But Ill rather die by your wee pen knife.
He s killed this may and he s laid her by,
For to bear the red rose company.”
—Unknown. Babylon; or, The Bonnie Banks o Fordie (l. 914)
