Samsung opens software development kit for Galaxy Note’s S Pen.
One of the best features of the new Samsung Galaxy Note is its S pen (or Stylus pen) and it looks like the South Korea-based company is ready fully maximize the potential of its “tabphone” (or tablet and smartphone in one) with the new SDK for the S Pen.
Samsung posted the software development kit for the Galaxy Note S Pen last week, allowing Android application developers to take advantage of the phone’s stylus pen. Developers can now use the pen’s basic canvas, eraser and undo/redo buttons and apply the pen’s setting pop-up that will allow a Galaxy Note user to adjust the width, opacity and line color.
For example, an application developer can create its own “Doodle” application, or an existing app to use the S pen’s option to enhance the app’s user experience.
The Samsung Galaxy Note is now available in Europe and Asia, but not yet available here in the United States. Rumors say the device’s US variant will be announced at the Consumer Electronics Show early next year.
The Samsung Galaxy Note is powered by 1.4GHz dual-core CPU and 1GB of DDR2 RAM, equipped with an 8-megapixel back camera and a front-facing 2-megapixel camera. The Galaxy Note is using Android Gingerbread 2.3.5 with the TouchWiz custom user interface which is similar to the Samsung Galaxy S II’s.
