3. History
Pen style personal networking gadget created in
2003, by Tokyo-based Japanese technology company
NEC.
P-ISM was first featured at the 2003 ITU Telecom
world held in Geneva, Switzerland
The
P-ISM system was based on "lowcost electronic perception technology" produced
by the San Jose, California, firm of Canesta
4. Designer of P-ISM
said that
” In developing this concept he
asked himself – “What is the
future of IT when it is small?”
The pen was a logical choice.
He also wanted a product that
you could touch and feel.
Further, the intent is to allow
for an office anywhere.
5. Introduction
(“Pen-style Personal Networking Gadget
Package”), which is under developing, stage by NEC
Corporation ( Nippon Electric Company, Limited).
This 'pen sort of instruments' produces both the softoutput as well as the Virtual keyboard on any flat surfaces
from where you can carry out functions you would
normally do on your desktop computer.
It is based on Electronic perception technology.
P-ISM
6. What is Electronic Perception
Technology (EPT)?
Electronic Perception Technology (EPT) is a low-
cost, single-chip imagining technology that enables
electronic components to form a 3-D map of their
surroundings and see what their users are doing. One of
the first applications is a “virtual keyboard”, a system
that projects a laser keyboard onto a table and detects
which keys the user is pressing by watching their hands
and sensing which spots on the table their fingers are
touching. Current EPT keyboards can sense up to 400
characters per minute.
7. P-ISM package including five gadget
C.P.U Pen
Camera Pen
Virtual Keyboard .
Projector Pen
Communication Pen.
9. CPU pen
The functionality of the CPU is done by one of the pen. It
is also known as computing engine.
Dual Core processor is used.
Works with windows operating system.
10. Comunication Pen
Wireless Bluetooth Technology.
Exchange
information
with
wireless connection
Connected to internet through
cellular phone function.
Uses Wi-Fi technology.
11. Virtual Keyboard
Virtual Keyboard is a new gadget.
It emits laser on desk which gives an alternative input
mechanism
Based of Electronic Perception Technology
12. LED Projector:
The role of monitor is
taken by LED Projector
which projects on the
screen. The size of the
projector is of A4 size. It
has the approximate
resolution capacity of
1024 X 768. Thus it is
gives more clarity and
good picture
13. Digital Camera
We had digital camera in
the shape of pen .It is
useful in video recording,
video conferencing, simply
it is called as web cam.
14. Battery important part in
It is the most
portable type of computers.
Usually batteries are small in
size and work for a long time.
It comes with a battery life of 6+
(i.e. 6days).
For normal use it can be used
for 2 weeks.
15. Merits and Demerits of P-ISM
Merits
Portable
Feasible
Wi-Fi technology
Based on Electronic
Perception Technology
Demerits
Currently Unclear
Cost
Positioning is main
16. Conclusion
The communication devices are becoming smaller and
compact. This is only an example for the start of this
new technology. We can expect more such
developments in the future. From this I have come up
with an idea on how an existing product can improve
by using the same technology as the P-ISM.
