Optimize
Your Work Style
Wacom's Cintiq 18SX and 15X interactive pen displays combine the advantages
of an LCD monitor with the control, comfort, and productivity of Wacom's
patented cordless, battery-free tablet technology. By working directly
on the screen, you navigate much more quickly and naturally. Both products
enable you to adjust the incline to your liking, and the 18SX stand allows
you to rotate your work surface as you would a pad of paper for a completely
natural work approach.
"I
get things done in half the time"
Gray Holland from Alchemy Labs recently discovered the power of an interactive
pen display after using a Cintiq for the first time on a project. He says,
"I get things done in half the time." When asked to describe
how he was able to double his productivity with a Cintiq, he responded,
"I have all the intuitiveness of pen and paper, but still have the
ability to undo, redo, and create different layers. These are things I
can't do with a piece of paper."
Cintiq
Grip Pen
The
Cintiq Grip Pen features Wacom's patented battery-free, cordless technology
with 512 levels of pressure sensitivity. This cushioned pen reduces your
grip effort by up to 40% so that you can work comfortably with less stress.
Customers tell us that being able to use a pen helps them alleviate mouse
and trackball induced repetitive stress injuries*.
Intuitive
to use
When
you're using a Cintiq you work with the pen directly on the screen. This
empowers you to take advantage of your natural hand-eye coordination to
work more quickly and intuitively in any software application. There is
little or no learning curve because of this natural "pen-on-paper"
work approach.
Tactile
Cintiq
implements unique LCD technologies to achieve a natural paper-like experience.
The surface has two coatings, one to diminish glare and another to provide
a texture simulating the feel of paper. These surfaces are also hardened
to provide durability and longevity. The LCD itself has been structured
to eliminate any screen distortion when the pen tip is pressed against
the surface. The result is an incredibly natural and intuitive experience.
No-fuss
system integration
You
have direct control of your configuration because your new Cintiq will
work seamlessly with your existing mouse or Wacom tablet and can be installed
as a single monitor or as part of a multi-monitor combination. Cintiq
employs standard connection options to work with all primary platforms
(Serial or USB for pen input; DVI or VGA for video).
Flat
panel display vs. CRT
LCD
displays offer many advantages compared to traditional cathode ray tube
(CRT) monitor products. LCD displays cause less eye strain, take up significantly
less work space, generate less heat, consume 70% less power, and implement
perfectly flat work surfaces. In addition, leading LCD displays, like
Cintiq, often have better contrast and brightness and offer a competitive
color gamut and color accurate work flow. Finally, LCD displays are fully
digital, offering crisper images and less maintenance (never need to converge
or de-flux an LCD).
