A sort of plotter An input device for the CPC? Probably notuse with CAD software. Looks more The pencil is attached to potentiometers, and works much like an input devicea top-down analogue joystick. The pencil does also have a "fire" button, allowing to start/stop drawing.
More info needed please submit!Note: Many people seem to think that the Graphiscop is a plotter - it isn't. At first glance it does actually look a bit like that, but in practice it should be mechanically impossible for hardware to move the pencil at that angle - a plotter would require to have much more robust mechanics.

GRAPHISCOP II is a pure product of French ingenuity. The idea is seductive: it is difficult to reproduce a design on a computer screen, using a simple joystick or cursor keys. To assist the designer, should be able to enable it to follow the contours of the design using a tool which when coupled to the computer allow breeding knew the screen. GRAPHISCOP II is born ... It works like a joystick reversed. Hanging from a gallows, a "pen" is attached to a potentiometer acting on a system conversion "analog to digital. Appropriate software moves a cursor on the screen. whose position is linked to the "pencil". At the end of "pencil" is a push to validate or not the route.
