A SPEAKING PEN

A German startup has developed a smarpen named Lernssift(German for "learning pen") which can check spelling as you write with it on paper. the pan vibrates when it detects any spelling mistake. At a time when digital device like Laptops and ipads are getting increasingly in school education and spell check as a features is taken for granted even on mobile phones, this device can bring the fun back to writing with hand.

To accomplish this the pen packs in nifty electronics inside comprising of a processor running embedded linux, motion sensor wifi, vibration modules and a battery. The prototype of the pen ready and the founders are trying to raise funds at Kickstarter for commercial production Here is the Kickstarter pitch for lernstift:
