Adobe takes on hardware with Project Mighty and Napoleon, set to launch in 2014
Friday, September 20, 2013 at 12:42AM Adobe has revealed back in May that they were working on hardware to couple their Creative Cloud suite dubbed Project Mighty, an internet-connected stylus, and Project Napoleon, a digital ruler. Now, these concepts are said to be graduating from experiments to full-blown products set to be shipped in the first half of 2014. The products will be made in cooperation with Adonit.
On the software side, Adobe talked about two new products that will complement the hardware. One is Project Parallel, a drafting iPad app, and the other is Project Contour, which is essentially Kuler for shapes. It allows you to take photos of your favorite shape or object on an iPhone and access it with the Napoleon on the iPad to help simplify architectural line sketching, drawing, and ideation.
