A handwriting board is provided. The handwriting board includes a bendable support plate, a touch screen and a control module located at the bendable support plate. The touch screen and the control module are electrically connected with each other. The touch screen is configured to sense a writing operation of a stylus on a writing paper and to generate touch coordinate data of the writing operation. The control module is configured to acquire the touch coordinate data and to generate touch handwriting information according to the touch coordinate data. The handwriting board is configured to sense the writing operation of the stylus on the writing paper and to form the touch handwriting information corresponding to an actual handwriting of the stylus formed on the writing paper.

An interactive drawing tablet is provided having a housing and at least one surface on which printed media is mounted. A delivery device is electrically coupled to the interactive drawing tablet and is configured to hold a writing implement. An array of emitters are embedded in the surface and configured to emit signals. The delivery device is configured to receive the signals from the emitters when the delivery device is brought into proximity to the individual emitters and thereby determine a location on the printed media. The interactive drawing tablet is equipped with a speaker for emitting audio media to the user of the tablet. The interactive drawing tablet provides a user with instructions as to actions that should be taken with respect to the printed media.

There is provided to a tilt board (1, 51, 61, 101) comprising an activity surface (3) supported by a base (5). The base comprises a front wall (7) and a rear wall (9) that extends downwardly from the activity surface by a greater distance than the front wall. The activity surface (3) comprises an activity surface surround (15) defining an aperture (17) therein and a removable activity surface insert (19) dimensioned for reception in the aperture. A plurality of interchangeable activity surface inserts (19) may be provided. The activity surface inserts (19) are also tilt adjustable relative to the remainder of the tilt board. The tilt board (1, 51, 61, 101) is provided with a circumferential flange so that the tilt board may be inserted into an aperture of a larger work surface such as a table if desired. The tilt board can be used for a range of activities, can lie flat in a larger work surface if desired, and the tilt angle can be adjusted to several angles which is highly advantageous.

A reusable writing surface is provided having a board having a front side and a rear side. A plurality of magnets is positioned on the rear side, wherein the plurality of magnets is configured to magnetically attach to a plurality of removable magnetic legs. The plurality of magnets are positioned such that the plurality of removable magnetic legs are configured to stand the reusable writing surface in either a vertical orientation or a horizontal orientation depending on which magnets of the plurality of magnets each magnetic leg attaches.

The present disclosure relates to a device for activating thermochromatic ink. The device may include a drawing tip, a heating element, which may include a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) heating element, communicably coupled to the drawing tip and configure to heat the drawing tip, and a power source configured to provide power to the heating element. The power source may be a lithium-ion battery. The battery may be rechargeable, and the device may have a charging port to recharge the battery from a power source coupled to the charging port. The device may have a regulator for regulating power from the power source to the heating element. The device may have a controller for directing power from the power source to the heating element. Further the heating element may be configured to heat the drawing tip to a temperature between 30-70 degrees Celsius.

A compact, portable art case is contemplated with (1) an area within the case to store blank sheets for artwork, (2) an exterior surface of the case with a mechanism for holding the artwork in place and serving as a backdrop while coloring, drawing or painting, and (3) a tray interlocking with the case to hold colored pencils or other art supplies necessary to create the art.

A tablet-like device is configured to have a slightly negative buoyancy and to hold a sheet of waterproof synthetic paper, or another removable, waterproof recording sheet, onto which notes or messages or sketches can be recorded via a writing implement, in an underwater or marine environment, or another extreme or severe environment. Since the tablet device is configured for use of sheets of waterproof synthetic paper, divers can work with their own personal pre-printed material underwater. Further, the tablet device also has the advantages of cost savings and reduced environmental impact.

A handwriting board is provided. The handwriting board includes a bendable support plate, a touch screen and a control module located at the bendable support plate. The touch screen and the control module are electrically connected with each other. The touch screen is configured to sense a writing operation of a stylus on a writing paper and to generate touch coordinate data of the writing operation. The control module is configured to acquire the touch coordinate data and to generate touch handwriting information according to the touch coordinate data. The handwriting board is configured to sense the writing operation of the stylus on the writing paper and to form the touch handwriting information corresponding to an actual handwriting of the stylus formed on the writing paper.

A work surface for a vehicle includes a first leaf, a second leaf, and a dual-stage hinge pivotably coupling the first and second leafs. The dual-stage hinge includes a first pivot axis and a second pivot axis.
