Wacom Sketcher is a concept tablet for graphical designers and selected for the hottest concept tech 2011 by T3 magazine and best of 2011 Tablet concepts by Designbuzz. The concept is a design by Max Battaglia, an industrial designer from Novara, Italy.

The buttons can be programmed for specified tasks and the jog dial gives the user the ability to zoom and turn the canvas without shifting the tablet position. Wacom Sketcher also has a 5.0 Mega Pixel camera for capturing sketches done on paper.
