Emma's experience with the prototype

Emma has just had her first experience with a prototype of the pen.

She really liked the design of the pen and the pink colour with white clouds, that was this pens design, really appealed to her. At first she thought that it was just a fancy pen and asked why would we want to test a pen. When we explained to her what the pen was about she wanted to try it immediately so that she could write a letter to her father.

By her motions one could clearly see that she found the pen a bit heavy at first but with time she got used to the little extra weight.

She instinctively pressed the button on the top of the pen to start writing. She was surprised that the pen spoke to her and told her to say the word she would like to write. She said the word 'daddy'. Following the instructions spoken by the pen she wrote a few letters. When she reached the letter 'y' she paused because she did not know how to write the letter 'y'. The pen, after some time of not detecting letters, prompted Emma to look at the LCD screen for the shape of the letter. Emma looked at the pen and saw the shape of the letter on the screen.

Emma was glad that the pen was able to help her to complete the word. She felt like she accomplished something and the celebration tunes and animation encouraged her to celebrate.

Emma was left with the pen for hours to complete a letter for her father. She was very proud that she accomplished to write a whole letter by herself and even more happy when she saw her fathers expression when he read the letter.
