We’ve seen this idea before, just not applied to the iPad: Ten One Design’s Fling, a suction-cup tactile controller for touchscreens, when your finger just won’t cut it. Maybe it sounds antithetical to try to analog-ize a touchscreen, but there are definitely applications that require more delicate fine-tuning than your sausage fingers will allow. Here they demonstrate it for gaming, but we believe this would also be invaluable for doing CAD on a touchscreen.
Take a further look at the Fling suction-cup tactile controller for the iPad after the jump…
