Skip the Flip and start taking the Tablets?

Summary

This document concludes that a viable electronic flip chart replacement is the digital pad.

Digital pads retain the natural pen-paper interface while producing an electronic image. The

electronic image can be shown as a real time protection screen display and the image can be

filed for reference or distribution.

1 Introduction

At the May 2007 SPDC Working Group meetings several people tried to explain their thoughts

by waving their arms in the air or gesticulating at the picture on the projector screen. What

they needed, but didn’t have, was a Flip Chart to illustrate their ideas on.

Flip Charts, like projector screens are very difficult to ship to meetings, consequently the hotel

provides Flip Charts or White Boards at some extortionate rate.

It doesn’t seem so long ago that I spent many hours printing out and mailing off draft

standards in paper form in preparation for meetings. Then we became e-mail attachment

enabled and drafts could be sent out that way. Today, we can post drafts on the PES SPD

Forum (members’ area only of course) and even post the updated draft at the meeting.

Electronic aids are now widely accepted, but we still crave the humble Flip Chart for instant

expression. There are interactive White Boards that can capture the board writing

electronically or as a print out. Interactive White Boards tend to large and cumbersome

making them more suitable for fixed installation. The modern small-sized equivalent is some

form of graphics input connected to the PC, projector and screen system. This document

examines the viability of electronic flip charts. The acceptance of an electronic flip chart

technology requires that the input method is intuitive and natural.

This document is not intended to be a comprehensive review and readers are encouraged to

do their own evaluations on technologies and products. Suppliers and product names are

used only as examples and should not be taken as specific recommendations.

The British Educational Communications and Technology Agency studies (Annex B) provided

the stimulus for this document.

2 What’s needed for an electronic Flip Chart?

Besides the normal PC, projector and screen we need to have matching software, software

drivers and the graphics hardware (includes pen).

2.1 Drawing tablet

Drawing tablets are usually sold for artistic purposes or image editing. Consequently they

have more sophisticated functions than a marker pen on a Flip chart. For example besides the

straight pen function you can make the pen act as a paintbrush or an air bush. The tablets are

normally pressure sensitive so you can use that to change the “brush” width or even colours.

Being electronic, such tablets have an erase function.
