Digital Pen and Paper

Through working with inphoActive and utilising DevelopIQ’s digital pen platform, agencies can deploy a system where witness statements are automatically uploaded to the Niche records management system as soon as they are written, thanks to the use of Anoto’s digital pen and paper technologies. 

The digital pen and paper has also been deployed to Crime Scene Investigation teams and others to assist in collecting and recording evidence from crime scenes, and recording property and exhibits for evidence in court.  Other applications may include missing persons, road traffic accidents and domestic incidents, to enable quicker access to accurate information. 

Anoto announced that the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) is now using Anoto digital pen technology to record witness statements and make the associated information available as quickly as possible across the entire police force in the country. The deployment sees 4,000 front line police and Criminal Investigation Department (CID) officers being equipped with Anoto technology.
