Apple’s chief designer Jonathan Ive in an interview with Wallpaper has clarified an important aspect of our new product. After the presentation, Apple Pencil media criticized Apple created the product, which is opposed by Steve jobs. In an interview, Ive said that a device which journalists called the stylus, is not in the conventional sense. “This is the device for drawing and not for the management interface of the operating system,” – said a top Manager.
“For us it was fundamentally important initially not to create a user interface that requires the use of additional tools. It was important to create an interface based on Multi-Touch technology that allows you to do some fingers. The reason is obvious. And also obviously, people aren’t that clever to carry out some action with his finger, better than a pen or pencil,” said Ive.
Introducing the iPhone in 2007, Steve jobs said “Who needs a stylus? You’re taking it out, clean it up, lose — fu! Nobody wants a stylus. Let’s not use a stylus”. Apple calls the new device “pencil”. According to Quince, an essential item for drawing or painting and it is already sharpened software.
“We found that there is a group of people who need a tool that allows you to paint or draw as this cannot be done with the fingers – continued top Manager. And I suspect that this is a fairly large group of people. I believe that it is not only those of us who attended art school.”
Ive noted that Apple Pencil is a tool by which the work c Multi-Touch becomes the new opportunities and diversity.
“We clearly realized that he is absolutely not meant to replace the fingers with regard to user interface controls. But this device, I think no one will argue, much more convenient than your finger, when you want to draw anything,” said Ive. “Traditional pencils could be replaced by a dish of powdered charcoal, into which you immerse your wetted finger. But this did not happen”, – he explained.
Ive noted that Apple Pencil works with pixel-perfect, expanding opportunities to work with the iPad and opening new horizons for creativity.
