AstroPad: Digitize the iPad. Created to be a perfect tool for artists, AstroPad visualizes an artist’s vision in a digital environment using the iPad as a digital input device. IPad functions as a touch responsive screen on which you can draw on too. Astropad is only available on Mac and works similar to EasyCanvas.
