Roll-Up III 4 Introduction Roll-Up III belongs to a class of computer input devices called graphic tablets, or digitizers. A digitizer is an electronic tablet work surface. The position of a transducer, a handheld cursor or stylus, on the work surface of the Roll-Up III is converted – digitized – into data for computer processing. Data output from the Roll-Up III digitizer is in the form of an X/Y coordinate pair that pinpoints the location of the transducer on the tablet surface.
