Today we'll discuss a business idea that might interest entrepreneurs involved in selling computer equipment, those in the art goods market, designers, and artists. The potential consumer base for the product we're talking about is quite broad.

However, drawing on tablets without the right tools can be challenging. This issue inspired the developers of Sensu Brush. Based in Illinois, USA, the team known as Artist Hardware set out to create a brush for digital artists. In 2011, they launched the project "Sensu Brush: A True Painting Experience on Your iPad" on Kickstarter.com, where funding was collaborative. The required funds were raised within days, and by 2012, the first Sensu Brush models were released for sale.

Sensu Brush features a brush tip with a stylus on the reverse side. Additionally, it comes with a cap-handle that can be fitted on either end of the device. The stylus is an optional addon to the brush. The brush surface is smooth and chrome-plated with a rubberized grip for comfort. The bristles are made of special conductive fibers, necessary for use on touch devices. The brush does not require recharging or traditional power sources like batteries, which is a plus for customers. The device weighs around 30 grams, optimal for hand comfort.

Which devices are compatible with the brush?

The official retail price from the manufacturer is around $35. The device is not widely available in our market yet, presenting an advantage for early adopters. Purchasing a Sensu Brush could be a great investment for artists and a memorable gift for creative tablet owners.
