graphics tablets
Digital art surfaces
Graphics tablets are input devices that let you draw or write with a stylus on a flat, pressure-sensitive surface, translating hand movements to a computer screen.
Artists and designers use them for digital illustration, photo editing, and animation because they offer more natural control than a mouse: She sketched the portrait on her graphics tablet.
Also called drawing tablets or pen tablets.
