Start with your pen.
Photograph your pen on a plain table and confirm its outline and writing end. The saved reference helps the app follow that pen as you draw.
YOUR PEN. YOUR PAPER. YOUR CAMERA.

FROM A PEN TO A PATH
More than the final line.
See how it took shape.
Save connected strokes in Sketchbook. Scrub through the replay and inspect timestamped points and estimated drawing coordinates.
Take your sketch further.
Export PNG or SVG drawings and CSV or JSON coordinates. Paper calibration maps strokes onto a rectangular page for export.
A LITTLE SETUP GOES A LONG WAY
Clear tip. Flat paper.
Room to draw.
Use good light, a contrasting background, and a visible pen tip. Keep the paper still and switch between Ink on and Pen lifted to separate strokes.
Live capture requires iOS or iPadOS 17 or later, an ARKit-capable device, and camera permission. Tracking and coordinates are estimates; results depend on visibility, motion, and calibration. Handwriting is saved as strokes, not converted to typed text.
