CalComp UltraSlate

CalComp UltraSlate ... works with your graphics software to perform the way a regular pen, pencil, or paintbrush does - and also includes some functions that only computer graphics can offer. With UltraSlate you can draw, trace, paint or retouch everything from simple line sketches to sophisticated 3D animation. The cordless, batteryless pen - perfectly balanced, and much easier to draw with than a mouse! It has 512 levels of pressure sensitivity, and translates pressure and angle into line thickness, shading, and color blending, as you choose. A fumble-free pen-point erasing feature means that you can edit or create special effects without having to turn the pen around or lose your place.

UltraSlate features HotKey toolboxes that are programmable to include your most-used commands. They appear on the screen right next to your work - another feature that lets you keep your eyes on what you're doing. The light, compact UltraSlate tablet is a handy sketchpad size, perfect for use on your desktop or in your lap. A clear overlay holds images in place for tracing. You can even copy a picture out of a book, because UltraSlate's pen can trace through materials up to 1/4 an inch thick. For painting, drawing, photo and image retouching, UltraSlate is compatible with major software programs in every graphics application. It's the ultimate in graphics tablets.
