Last month we told you about the new Pulse Smartpen from Livescribe, and also that they intended to launch an application store for their smartpens. Today, Livescribe has officially launched their application store.
The Livescribe Launches Pulse Smartpen App Store features just 30 paid and free applications at launch, which are designed to extend the functionality of the Pulse Smartpen.
“The initial set of more than 30 applications only begins to tap the potential of the Livescribe smartpen platform,” said Byron Connell, chief marketing officer of Livescribe. “We look forward to seeing our community of more than 5,500 registered developers create, develop and distribute the next generation of innovative paper-based computing applications to come.”
Expanding the Pulse Smartpen’s Capabilities
The Pulse Smartpen is already a remarkable tool, capable of recording audio and linking it to handwritten notes. With the launch of the app store, its capabilities are set to expand even further. The applications available range from productivity tools to educational aids, and even entertainment apps. For instance, users can download language translation apps, which can be incredibly useful for students and professionals alike. There are also apps designed to help with mathematical calculations, making the Pulse Smartpen a versatile tool for engineers and scientists.
Livescribe has also launched a Smartpen SDK (Software Development Kit) for developers. This SDK allows developers to create custom applications tailored to specific needs, further enhancing the versatility of the Pulse Smartpen. The SDK includes comprehensive documentation and sample code, making it easier for developers to get started. This move is expected to spur innovation and lead to a broader range of applications in the future.
Community and Developer Engagement
The launch of the app store is not just about providing more functionality to users; it’s also about building a community. Livescribe has a community of more than 5,500 registered developers who are eager to create, develop, and distribute innovative paper-based computing applications. This community-driven approach ensures that the app store will continue to grow and evolve, offering new and exciting applications regularly.
Livescribe’s commitment to fostering a developer community is evident in their support and resources. They offer forums, webinars, and direct support to help developers bring their ideas to life. This collaborative environment is expected to lead to a diverse range of applications that cater to various user needs.
