Heidi Wang, VP Product Management & Business Development at Wacom, explains WILL™ the new standard for digital ink. WILL™ (Wacom Ink Layer Language) is a specific standard for digital ink, which is created and stored in a special format because a digital pen creates more data than other input devices such as a mouse or keyboard, including pressure, tilt, and rotation. WILL™ comprises: - An algorithm that creates a beautiful visual representation of ink, which motivates people to use it. - A file format specialized for digital ink (similar to .pdf or .doc), the structure of which allows for the storage of metadata that enable an unlimited number of use cases. - A family of SDKs that developers can use to quickly and easily utilize the power of WILL™ digital ink within their applications using any pen, stylus or touch-enabled device, on any platform.
