WILL SDK for devices

Wacom Ink SDK for devices


Wacom Ink SDK for devices allows you to integrate Wacom and third-party inking devices into your applications. The Common Device Library (CDL) SDK currently supports:


  • Wacom Smartpads (Folio, Slate)
  • Intuos Pro Paper Edition
  • Apple pencil on iPad Pro.

Future releases will add support for additional Wacom devices, as well as inking devices from other vendors.


Platform-specific packages are also available for iOS, Android, Windows, UWP/Desktop, and Web, depending on the device. 


The Common Device Library (CDL) SDK within Wacom Ink Connectivity is designed as one library that can handle different types of pen or touch input. The advantages of this approach include:


  • Less implementation effort for developers: Integration of only one library, support for several pen input devices
  • The flexibility to include support for non-Wacom devices in your applications
  • The freedom to take full advantage of Wacom Ink Technologies to provide a high quality front-end and UI through optional receipt of RAW data from the device, without sacrificing the original data for internal/back-end usage i.e. it can deliver ink data but also retain raw pen data to be used in other ways.
  • Easy access to the Wacom Ink technology ecosystem through smooth integration of Wacom ink technology.


Wacom Device Kit


Use the Wacom Device Kit to add a Wacom device to your application using a variety of low-level tools.


No license key is required in your application, as the tools are free to use.


STU SDK


An input library for capturing pen data from all Wacom STU-series signature pads on Windows and Linux platforms.


Wintab API


An input API for capturing data from Wacom tablets and pen displays running Windows and OSX. Compatible tablets and displays include:


  • Intuos, Intuos 4, Intuos 5 and Intuos Pro display tablets
  • Cintiq and Cintiq Companion devices
  • ExpressKey Remote devices
  • Wacom MobileStudio Pro, Cintiq Pro and Intuos Pro devices

 

Wacom Digitizer Pen for Android API


An input API for integrating pen technology with applications running on Android.


Feel Multi-touch APIs


These APIs enable you to build applications that utilize the powerful finger detection and location capabilities of Wacom touch tablets. This stream of finger information can be used to create unique application features, including custom gestures or direct on screen manipulation.


Bluetooth Stylus SDK


This input SDK enables discovery of and connection to stylus devices, and the receipt of raw pressure and button state data. It also includes functionality to enable Touch Rejection, so that users can maintain a natural handwriting position without the display reacting to unintentional touches.
