German inventors introduce smart pen that detects spelling mistakes

Washington: People are working hard to introducing new gadgets across the globe. Here comes a new development from a Germany where inventors who have developed a pen that vibrates every time the person makes a spelling mistake or writes a bad handwriting. The pen has been founded by Daniel Kaesmacher and Falk Wolsky.

The name given to the pen is Lernstift. The pen looks like any other pen but the only difference is that it has an in-built sensor along with a tiny battery that has been made by Linux computer. Also, the pen comes bundled with a WiFi chip.

All these features within the pen, allow it to detect a spelling mistake and poor hand writing. A leading daily reported that the pen vibrates when it senses a bad handwriting or mis-spelled words.

The pen comes with two functions - Calligraphy Mode and Orthography Mode. The Calligraphy Mode allows the writer to point out mistakes and the Orthography Mode recognizes words and if at any time, it does not recognize the word, it vibrates.

The idea to develop such a pen came when Falk Wolsky saw his 10-year-old son doing his homework.

Daniel confirmed the news saying, "His son had been struggling with his work and staying focused and Falk thought there should be a pen that gives him some sort of signal so he stays focused."
