Today Logitech announced the Logitech^® Crayon, a versatile, pixel-precise digital pencil for the 9.7-inch iPad, previously only accessible to students in schools, will be available in Apple Retail beginning September 12. With a kid-friendly durable design, Logitech Crayon features Apple Pencil^® technology to deliver an ultra-responsive, precise and comfortable handwriting experience that makes it easy to markup and highlight work, take notes, or simply draw using your favourite iPad apps from the App Store.

“First introduced to students as a versatile tool for learning, we are thrilled to make Logitech Crayon, our first digital pencil, more widely available so even more creators, dreamers, and learners can express themselves and communicate new ideas using the new 9.7-inch iPad,” said Michele Hermann, vice president of mobility at Logitech. “Logitech Crayon works seamlessly with iPad and the most popular creativity and productivity apps from the App Store so whether you are learning to write a new language, jotting down notes, marking up a screenshot or PDF, or visualizing an idea, Crayon is the perfect tool for the task.”

Logitech Crayon takes advantage of Apple Pencil technology (but does not support pressure sensitivity) to deliver a natural, fast and precise experience across apps. Palm-rejection automatically ignores touches that don’t come from Logitech Crayon, which means you can comfortably rest your hand on the screen while you create. Crayon’s smart tip dynamically adjusts line weight allowing you to easily go from thick to thin lines with a tilt of a tip – just like a regular pencil.

Logitech Crayon connects instantly to iPad without the need to pair — just press the on button to turn Crayon on and start creating on iPad right away – it’s that easy. Logitech Crayon has battery that supports up to 7 hours of active writing time on a full charge.

Crayon is perfect for everywhere creativity and learning happens. Designed to be comfortable to hold for even tiny hands, it stays in place when it’s set down, featuring an easy-to-grip flat surface to prevent rolling and the kid-friendly sturdy, durable design can withstand drops of up to 1.2 metres. The rubber end cap is tethered to Logitech Crayon to avoid being misplaced.

Pricing and Availability

The Logitech Crayon is available for purchase at Logitech.com, Apple.com and Apple retail stores through September 2018 and is expected to be available everywhere beginning October 2018 for a suggested retail price of £64.99. For schools and school districts in the UK, Logitech Crayon is available for a special price of £49.45 at apple.com/uk/education/how-to-buy/, with additional countries to begin selling Logitech Crayon to education institutions soon.

Logitech G, a brand of Logitech today announced the Logitech® G PRO Wireless Gaming Mouse, the first Logitech G LIGHTSPEED™ wireless gaming mouse designed with and for professional esports athletes. The Logitech G PRO Wireless mouse was built for the highest levels of professional play and features Logitech G’s next-generation HERO (High Efficiency Rated Optical) 16K sensor for the ultimate in sensor speed, accuracy and responsiveness. The PRO Wireless mouse also features Logitech G’s exclusive LIGHTSPEED wireless technology, the only wireless solution that provides pro grade performance and is actively used in tournament play by top professionals.

The PRO Wireless mouse was designed to be ultra-lightweight at 80g and yet incredibly strong. A feat of engineering, this strong lightweight build is thanks to an advanced 1mm thin wall construction and unique endoskeleton design. The PRO Wireless is also compatible with the Logitech G POWERPLAY Wireless Charging System, for infinite charging and play. The mouse represents more than 2 years of development in collaboration with more than 50 professional esports players globally, and blends extreme performance with the most advanced technologies into a gaming mouse design intended to do one thing: help you win.

“We’ve always believed that wireless would advance so esports pros could play and win with our wireless gear,” said Ujesh Desai, vice president and general manager of Logitech Gaming. “We've had players using this mouse in competition for months, including Profit from the London Spitfire at the OWL Championship, and it's a proven winner.”

For a performance edge on the competition, the Logitech G PRO Wireless features Logitech G’s industry-leading HERO 16K sensor, the highest performance sensor available today. The HERO 16K sensor incorporates an all-new lens and an updated tracking algorithm that delivers ultra-precise tracking with no acceleration, smoothing, or filtering over the entire DPI range. It exceeds the performance of previous generation sensors, and is capable of exceeding 400 IPS and delivering 16,000 DPI tracking with pixel-precise accuracy.

"Having such a lightweight wireless mouse that I knew I could depend on made a huge difference for me at the championship," said Profit, London Spitfire. "It helped me win the MVP - it's a god mouse."

Coupled with Logitech G’s ultra-fast LIGHTSPEED wireless technology, the Logitech G PRO Wireless provides a lag-free gaming experience, with a 1ms report rate, end-to-end optimized wireless connection and incredible responsiveness for reliable competition-level performance. The LIGHTSPEED Wireless USB receiver can be stored inside the mouse for easy portability.

Every aspect of the Logitech G PRO Wireless allows for precision control. The mouse was designed in collaboration with over 50 esports pros and the result is a mouse that's both lightweight, comfortable and delivers the highest performance.

“It was really cool to collaborate with Logitech G on a project like the G PRO Wireless mouse, said Zven, Team SoloMid. "They really listened and reacted to our needs. We asked for everything and they designed an amazing mouse that is perfect for my needs.”

The mouse also features removable left and right side buttons that make it truly ambidextrous and all buttons and LIGHTSYNC RGB lighting can also be customized using Logitech Gaming Software (LGS). The DPI button is located on the underside of the Logitech G PRO Wireless to prevent unintentional DPI shifts in-game.

“Presentations are nerve-wracking,” said Marcel Stolk, senior vice president of Creativity and Productivity business group at Logitech. “For most, the main stumbling block is a lack of confidence – we just get nervous. Spotlight is easier to use and, most importantly, gives you new ways to engage your audience versus a hard-to-see laser pointer.”

Spotlight is a new standard in presentation control. It allows you to effortlessly navigate slides and interact with on-screen content from up to 100 feet away. With the advanced pointer system, you can highlight and magnify points on your slide in pixel-perfect detail, so the audience stays engaged throughout your talk. Spotlight also has mouse-like cursor control to play videos and open links, and unlike a laser, the cursor and highlights are visible to both a live audience and those on a video conference.

Spotlight pairs with a powerful app so you can set the stage even before your presentation begins. In the app you can toggle pointer mode, set timed vibration alerts or activate more advanced functions like volume control with hand gestures. What’s more, the app will be updated with additional features over time, so you’ll always have access to the latest in presentation functionality with Spotlight.

“We know how important reliable technology is for helping speakers feel confident on stage,” said Lisa Choi Owens, head of global partnerships at TED. “Using technologies like Logitech Spotlight allows our speakers to focus on their talks, and deliver ideas worth spreading.”

Logitech Spotlight also connects instantly via USB receiver or Bluetooth® Smart technology. It is plug-and-play on most devices and compatible with all popular presentation apps. Plus, it features smart recharging – one minute of charge gives three hours of use – so you will never be caught off guard.

Logitech and TED plan to launch a worldwide search for aspiring communicators who will be invited to participate in an exclusive Spotlight Presentation Academy at the TED Theatre in New York. Armed with a Spotlight presentation remote, attendees will have the opportunity to work with industry experts to enhance their presentation skills. Through this program, the two companies aim to inspire and support communities of presenters and idea-sharers worldwide. More details regarding the search will be announced in the coming weeks.

Availability

Logitech Spotlight Presentation Remote is available today from Logitech and Apple for a suggested retail price of £119.99, and will be available from additional retailers worldwide in March. For more information about the product’s features and functionality, please visit Logitech.com, our blog or connect with us on Facebook.
