The better sheet of paper
 
Brainchild is a tool that concentrates on improving face-to-face discussions. It achieves this by exploiting the most intuitive human-machine interface currently available: drawing with your pen on your tablet PC – much the same way you write on a sheet of paper.
 
But in contrast to ordinary paper you have the full computing and networking power of a modern notebook supporting you. This way, you can share your drawings with your colleagues; in real-time; and they can work on, refine, and improve your sketches together with you. Thereby, sophisticated team-awareness features ensure that you always know, what the others are currently doing on the drawing and which item they exactly mean when
when they say “this box”.
