A software tool for tablet computers can transform sketched web pages into
real ones and hand-drawn code into real programs.
The tool, known as InkKit, was created to provide a smooth transition
between early sketches and more polished designs. It lets designers sketch a
webpage, for example, on a tablet computer using a stylus. Providing they
follow a set of basic rules, it can then transform this sketch into a neater
version with interactive features.
"Electronic tools are great for the later stages of design, but they
restrict your ideas at early stages," says Beryl Plimmer at the University
of Auckland in New Zealand. "People usually use paper when generating ideas
and then have to transcribe them onto a computer when they are more fixed."
