ABSTRACT:
A hand writing device for assisting the young, old, and disabled to impart indicia onto a medium. The device includes an ergonomically designed and anthropomorphically shaped body having a top adapted to accommodate the palm of the hand, a planar bottom, and a reservoir containing a supply of writing fluid. A stylus is provided with a tip for depositing the writing fluid on the medium. A glide system is positioned on the bottom of the body and is adapted to provide low-friction movement of the device over the medium. The device pivots between a first position engaging the stylus with the medium and a second position disengaging the stylus from the medium. A head is coextensively connected to and extends outwardly from one end of the body and holds the stylus. The device allows the user to transfer writing motion between the hand and the stylus without having to grasp, grip, hold, or exercise finger control.
