@sgeiger Sure it is different, but are you sure about the pressure? Because sth with a small tip does not work even with quite some pressure; on the other hand I tried a very soft brush that covered a larger area without any significant pressure and that worked very well...

It definitely needs no special pen like capacitive screens; any tip large and soft enough to be recognized by the IR and to not hurt the screen surface should work.

About the eraser/rubber - there are kinds of eraser that smear - usually the red, rough ones - and some that don't, they are usually white and very soft. Obviously one should only use the soft, white kind; also hardly any pressure is needed, just a soft touch.
