Popis: Assessing the writing skill is core to identify children with dysgraphia. Smartpens have been used to identify handwriting patterns, but their elevated cost may make them impractical, especially in a context such as Latin American. In this paper, we present the design of PenSando, a cost-effective smartpen augmented with sensing capabilities to aid in detecting the handwriting learning needs of a child. The pen senses inertial and pressure measurement. It provides a 3D-printed case to ensure a proper grip. We run a pilot study with two children to understand their experience while writing using PenSando.
