Wacom Unveils Strategy To Launch Digital Stationery Consortium
Connected Ink Event To Include Samsung, Montblanc, E Ink and Wacom
BERLIN — Sept. 5, 2016 — Wacom announced today its strategic plan to establish the Digital Stationery Consortium in October 2016. The objective of consortium is to establish digital ink as universal, open and smart content format by promoting and managing digital ink formats based on the Wacom Ink Layer Language (WILL™). WILL’s digital ink technology ensures cross-compatibility of ink data, allowing businesses and consumers to freely communicate and collaborate across digital devices, operating systems, hardware platforms and cloud services. WILL is a universal inking engine and ink layer framework that connects hardware, software and applications.
« Unifying various digital stationery solutions under the WILL framework will reduce complexity and produce a richer user experience by creating a seamless digital ink experience across every mobile device and ecosystem, » said Masahiko Yamada, President & CEO of Wacom. « We received very positive feedback about launching this consortium while conducting our initial industry outreach at Connected Ink events in Las Vegas and Shanghai recently. »
