We all spend a lot of time typing these days, whether that’s on a phone, tablet or laptop. But there’s something special about taking notes by hand that merely tapping out text can’t capture. This SyncPen 2nd Generation Smart Pen with Notebook takes your doodles, scribbles and formulas and turns them into editable digital text that you can easily access later — it’s the best of both worlds.

A smart pen for digital notes

Whether you’re a student trying to stay on top of lectures, an artist experimenting with new ideas or just love the tactile act of jotting down notes, this smart pen is the perfect all-around tool. It lets you seamlessly alternate between writing traditional notes and electronic editable notes, using a motion-tracking sensor that accurately captures the movement of your writing or drawing.

With the SyncPen, you can easily convert your scribbles into a digital format. It can handle everything from random notes to flowcharts and doodles. It also comes with a 10-inch LCD writing pad, which allows you to leverage different colors to stay creative and organized. Plus, you can easily send your work as an email to groups or co-workers you collaborate with, share notes with friends and colleagues, or even record audio logs alongside your text.

Successfully funded on Kickstarter, this smart pen is only limited by your imagination. You can even capture 360-degree angles of notes without being reliant on them being oriented at a specific angle. Plus, you’re doing the earth a favor when you use the paperless LDC writing pad (which also can be used in an offline mode). The pad recognizes up to 66 languages and sorts your notes by words or date. Plus, it can convert your files into everything from a Microsoft Word document to a PDF or JPG.
