Given the ever increasing populations of kids struggling in school it is my personal hope that this pen can help to level the playing field for our children.

The infra-red camera can be part of a finger glove along with a tactile feedback module touching the finger. When the finger moves over the dot paper, the user gets feedback on the character at that location through the tactile feedback module. Ram Hi,

While you might not run into a problem at just any college, you may run into problems at the mighty HLS. For a brief synopsis of the laws in your state go to this website, and look them up. http://www.rcfp.org/taping/ As a consultant, who takes notes all the time at meetings, I'm particularly keen to get a smartpen, -but I don't want to break the law when using it.
