Wacom introduces Intuos 4 Wireless pen tablet

Designed for home, office, classroom or remote-meeting use, the Intuos4 Wireless provides mobility and freedom when working with Bluetooth-enabled desktop or laptop computers, says Don Varga, senior product manager for Wacom’s line of professional branded products. The Intuos4 Wireless features USB charging directly from the computer.

The Grip Pen that comes with the Intuos4 Wireless features Wacom’s proprietary Tip Sensor technology, offering users near-zero (one gram) starting pressure for the most sensitive Intuos pen tablet performance to-date, Varga adds. It has 2048 levels of pressure, doubling the resolution of the pen’s pressure curve. The Grip Pen also features a pressure-sensitive eraser and two customizable side switches that can be set for commands such as double- click and right-click.

Available in a single size (medium) only, the Intuos4 Wireless has an asymmetrical design that puts the Touch Ring and the customizable ExpressKeys on one side of the tablet, making them all available to the user’s non- dominant hand. The application-specific ExpressKeys are designed to help improve workflow and boosting productivity by placing commonly-used commands right at the user’s fingertips.

Illuminated (OLED) displays provide reminders as to the function of each ExpressKey. These settings are application-specific and the displays will immediately update as the user changes between applications. To switch the tablet from right-handed to left-handed use, the user rotates the tablet 180 degrees and changes the orientation of the illuminated icons within the Wacom Tablet driver software.

The Touch Ring on the Intuos4 Wireless is capable of controlling up to four different functions in any application. A button located in the center of the ring “toggles” the ring between application-specific functions such as zoom, scroll, brush size adjustment or canvas rotation. The position of the illuminated LED located along the perimeter of the Touch Ring indicates the current function.

A weighted desktop pen stand not only provides a pen holder, but also functions as a twist-off storage compartment for pen nibs and has a nib removal tool inside. Standard, felt, stroke and flex nibs ship with the Intuos4 Wireless, allowing users to simulate the feel of working with a variety of traditional art and design materials.

Purchasers of an Intuos4 Wireless pen tablet are entitled to a choice of two applications from a selection of three offered by leading software manufacturers Adobe, Autodesk and Corel. Users select their applications via broadband download. Intuos4 Wireless users will also benefit from Wacom’s powerful driver software, including radial menus for quick “penpoint” access to additional customized shortcuts, according to Varga.

Wacom has created a line of accessories that includes several different types of pens. For example, the newly designed Art Pen supports the barrel rotation feature within such applications as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and Corel Painter 11. The Intuos4 Airbrush has a similar form and wheel-based control as a traditional airbrush.

The tablet is scheduled for launch in Mexico and other Latin America countries in subsequent months.
