What is the "Pen" ?

The Pen is a new device you will receive when visiting Cooper Hewitt. It allows you to interact with the museum in a number of new and exciting ways.

• It's a pen! The pen can be used to manipulate our multi-touch tables. You can use the pen to draw, scribble and design.
• It's a collecting device. You can use the eraser end of the pen to "collect" the objects you find interesting throughout the museum. just look for the small "plus" sign on each wall label. Tap the plus sign with the eraser end of the pen, and it will record that object to the pen's memory.
