Abstract— Modern technologies are shaping the world in very effective and efficient ways. Computers are advancing
rapidly. In this process, the technology came which is known as 5 Pen PC. This technology is a new finding of NEC
corporation. It is also called “P-ISM” – Pen Style Personal Networking Gadget Package. It consists of five major
components: CPU pen, communication pen, Projector pen, Camera pen and Virtual keyboard pen. It uses mainly
Bluetooth and internet for communication purpose.
Keywords— CPU pen, P-ISM, virtual keyboard, communication pen, LED projector

Introduction
5 Pen Pc Technology is developed by a Japanese Company NEC (Nippon Electric Company, Limited) in 2003. It is designed
by Tour Ichihashi. It has five major parts: CPU pen, communication pen, Projector pen, Camera pen and Virtual keyboard pen.
It is also known as P-ISM. P-ISMs are link to each other through wireless technology like Bluetooth. It can also uses the wi-fi
Technology as well and provides facilities to develop computing environment anywhere. It was first feature at ITU telecom
world held in Geneva, Switzerland.

Components of 5 Pen PC Technology

CPU pen
Name suggest that CPU’s work is done by a pen. Every function of general computer’s CPU is done in lucrative and systematic
manner. These functions are arithmetical, logical and I/O operations. CPU pen works only with Windows Operating System
and dual core processor is used in it.

This pen is used for establishing communication between others device. It uses the wireless technology like Bluetooth or
sometimes wi-fi for connecting purpose. This pen has basically inbuilt cellular functions which is used to connect it to the
internet and share information to relevant devices. It is conceptually form a Tri- wireless mode consist of Bluetooth, 802.11 B/G,
Cellular for connection.

Projector pen
It is used to obtain a LED projector which is used for visual output of the computer. This projector has good resolution capacity
1024*768 approximately and nice image quality. It is necessary to project content on flat surface for better experience. Projector
pen works together with Communication pen and Camera pen.

Camera pen
Its purpose is to capture image and videos. It connects to other device like communication pen, projector pen through wireless
technology like Bluetooth and wi-fi. Others features of camera are that it can rotate complete 360 degree and used for facial
recognition as well. It is highly portable as same as other components.

Virtual Keyboard Pen
This pen is used to project virtual keyboard which is also known as laser keyboard. It emits a virtual keyboard on flat surface or
some desk which is suitable for this purpose. This keyboard is same as general computer’s QWERTY keyboard but faster and
much secure than ordinary keyboard. Sensitivity of laser keyboard is adjustable, a great feature of it.

Working of P-ISM
P-ISM has five pen devices in which each device is connected with CPU pen. Camera pen is connected with Projector pen to
establish communication between camera and display unit. Projector Pen is connected with Virtual keyboard pen so that
keystrokes can be made visible on display. All components are connected by Bluetooth 802.11 B/G. Sometimes devices are
also connected using wi-fi technology.

Basic techniques of Pen computing:

1. Direct manipulation:
a. The stylus is used to press and drag on simulated objects directly. One example, Wang Freestyle system.
2. Gesture recognition:
a. It is used to recognize a special command. For instance, “Pig tail” shape which indicates ‘delete’ operation.
3. Handwriting Recognition:
The tablet and stylus are used to replace a keyboard and mouse in two modes in following ways:
Online-Handwriting recognition mode:
a. The stroke as handwritten characters are recognized by software. Then, Characters are entered as, if they are
entered from a real keyboard.
Pointing mode
b. Pointing device is a “Stylus ” here.
Advantages of 5 Pen PC Technology

‒ It uses wireless technology to connect devices which completely remove the hodgepodge of wire or cable.
‒ It is highly portable and easy to use due to small in size.
‒ Size of display unit can be changed according to requirement.
‒ It uses less internal and external space.
Disadvantages 5 Pen PC Technology

‒ It is very costly.
‒ Projection surface for both display unit and virtual keyboard must be flat for smooth usage.
‒ It has limitation on range due to use of wireless technology.
‒ It can be misplaced easily due to small is size.
Conclusion
The communication technology is improving with time and becoming smaller and sophisticated. In this process, P-ISM came
which is really a hi-tech technology and bring the computers in people’s pocket. It can be surely great discovery in future when
its usage will general among people and it can change the people’s view about computer.
