Description
Guess what just came in the mail from DeviantArt? ArtStroke -- DeviantArt's new wearable device that encourages daily creativity by recording every flick of your wrist. Just strap it on and grab the tool you're most passionate about. ArtStroke's built-in precision engine detects that you're about to get those creative juices flowing and begins counting your daily strokes for analysis via the companion app, available for iOS and Android. Brushstrokes, pen strokes, stylus strokes -- our cutting-edge technology will record and report your progress every step of the way.
In short, it's like a FitBit or FuelBand, but geared toward artists.

Review:
Works perfectly well when strapped on my right hand. Unfortunately, it doesn't work when you're drawing left-handed, which is an utter disappointment.

Comfort level is pretty good and it doesn't weight that much at all.

Functionality great, registers the momentum of your stroke till when it stops/start new direction. Anyway it seems to register them really well long or short. I was very cynical at first but overall, it's been very fun to use.

It appears to also register "non-drawing" strokes, and simulate the motion-captured strokes onto your iOS or Android -- Something I wish I had known prior to showing the simulation to my friends and family.

Overall, had fun with the ArtStroke. Can't wait for its official launch.
