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 "low-cost electronic perception technology" produced by the San Jose, California, firm of Canesta

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.

Introduction

P-ISM (“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 soft-output 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.

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.

P-ISM package including five gadget

Block diagram of pen technology

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.

Comunication Pen

Wireless Bluetooth Technology. Exchange information with wireless connection

Connected to internet through cellular phone function.

Uses Wi-Fi technology.

Virtual Keyboard

Virtual Keyboard is a new gadget. It emits laser on desk which gives an

alternative input mechanism Based of Electronic

Perception Technology 

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

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.

Battery

It is the most important part in 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.

Merits and Demerits of P-ISM

MERITS

Portable Feasible Wi-Fi technology Based on Electronic

Perception Technology 

DEMERITS

Currently Unclear Cost Positioning is main

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.
