Anoto's unique dot pattern is ideal for digital writing on
tablets and screens because of its accuracy, flexibility and almost
unlimited application potential. The technology can turn virtually
any surface, including large formats, into a "live digital surface"
in which the dot pattern is read by a digital pen and converted
into computer-usable data.
Panasonic will be on location at the 2013 International CES, the
world's largest consumer technology event, January 8-11, 2013, in Las Vegas. This year's show features a keynote
speech by Mr. Kazuhiro Tsuga,
president of Panasonic and showcases the company's newest
technologies including the "4K tablet" being demonstrated live at
