Experience with external signature pads and the Thinkwise signature control?

Hi all,

We are investigating the use of external signature pads together with the standard Thinkwise signature control (UI/domain signature field).

Our use-case:

• Retail/store environment

• Browser-based usage

• User clicks the signature field in Thinkwise

• Customer signs on an external signature pad

• Signature should be captured by the existing Thinkwise signature control

We are specifically trying to avoid:

• Heavy custom integrations

• Browser plugins/extensions where possible

• Custom Thinkwise components

Questions:

1. Has anyone successfully tested external signature pads with the standard Thinkwise signature control?

2. Which devices/models worked well?

3. Did the device work as standard HID/mouse/stylus input, or did it require SDK/software integration?

Thanks!
