This is another Kickstarter project. Because it can be hard to hold your iPad one-handed while you sketch, Dan Almazan has developed a holder that he calls ARTSi. The device looks like a traditional artist’s palette, but it holds an iPad instead of paints. The ARTSi will be injection-molded, and it will work with the [...]
