Abstract

A low-cost and rugged electronic apparatus to store and to transfer written information. The apparatus includes a pen and a board, which has a sensing mechanism, a memory device and a communication link. When the pen imprints symbols to the board, the symbols are not concurrently electronically displayed. But the symbols are detected by the sensing mechanism, stored in the memory device, and can later be transferred to an electronic device through the communication link.
