Annual Report
2009
Creating harmony between
people and technology
We looked inside ourselves
to find the thought that defines
and drives everything we do.
An idea that helps us open

up to experience the world
in a new way.
An idea to drive us forward.

Open up. Sense more.
An idea. A dream. An inspiration.

The key to our success
Our corporate vision is “creating harmony between people and technology.” How do we do this? By providing
technologically-sophisticated tools that are natural to use and people-friendly. Anyone can use them.
In the 1980s we pioneered the development of cordless and battery-free pen tablets – a brand new way of working
that opened up fresh, creative possibilities. Graphic artists around the world immediately prized the pen tablet’s
user-friendly interface and versatility. To this day, the pen tablet is an absolute must-have in the world of graphics.
We did not stop there. We thought, “What if you could draw directly on to a computer screen?” Our interactive pen
displays enable users to do just that. These products are now hugely popular in many business sectors, including
medical firms, educational institutions, transportation/shipping companies and those enterprises that need more
natural and interactive ways to use computers.
We then looked at how we could make life better for mobile users such as traveling executives, doctors and truck
drivers. We incorporated pen-sensor components into Tablet PCs so that handwritten notes can be added more
easily to documents during meetings and interviews. This makes data entry faster and more natural and efficient
than ever before.
Our pen tablets continue to be adopted into new application areas, and we are committed to the ongoing develop-
ment of exciting new technologies. Our aim is to revolutionize both the workplace and the home with our user-
interface technology. We’re looking forward to seeing where this takes us. It’s going to be an exciting journey.

For the 27th fiscal year, we expect on-going uncertainty in
the global economy. The potential risk of further deteriora-

become real if key regions cannot keep consistent fiscal
policies and stimulus packages. Under such circum-
stances, we take operational stability as the first priority,
and will proactively manage the business risk.

Where are we now?
The next generation –
professional pen tablet Intuos4 is here!
Wacom unveiled the long anticipated Intuos4, a revolutionary new

professional pen tablet for the field of illustration, animation, web,
movie film and industrial design in March 2009. It was available
through most national electrical stores and our own online shops
from April.
The Intuos series provides indispensable functionality for high-

quality digital content production and has already received high
praise as a de-facto standard tool by professionals.
Intuos4, the highest performance professional pen tablet yet, was
developed as a design tool to offer increased precision, control and
productivity to the user. Based on analysis of the user’s work flow,
Intuos4 was designed using new User Centered product design
techniques incorporating universal design and ergonomics. It is
equipped with a newly developed IC (integrated circuit) and sensor,
which offers near-zero (one gram) starting pen pressure against the
tablet surface, as well as delivering 2,048 levels of pressure sensi-
tivity, doubling that of previous models. Intuos4 provides users with
a natural writing and drawing feel, just like traditional pencils and
paint brushes.
Wacom aims to sell 500,000 units worldwide within the first year
from when the product was launched.
We developed a high performance multi-touch sensor for

coincidence detection of multiple fingers
Wacom developed the original high performance multi-touch
sensor system which offers users the means to navigate and
control input on a computer display with multiple fingers.
Wacom applied cultivated high precision sensor technology with

pen tablet technology for the detection of multiple fingers, and
adopted the original technology for the IC controller of the touch
sensor. Wacom’s multi-touch sensor system realizes high speed
and high precision position sensing of unlimited numbers of finger
touch as well as featuring incredible stability, even when installed
in notebook PCs of which power consumption is limited in battery
mode.Windows 7, Microsoft’s next generation OS, newly supports
touch input solutions as a standard function. Wacom offers the
promising multi-touch sensor system to the market for notebooks
and desktop PCs as well as larger LCDs and aims at further
expansion of its component product sales.

Interactive pen displays are the centerpiece of a
new advanced concept teaching space in the
University of Queensland in Australia.
Wacom’s interactive pen displays

were adopted as the most
intuitive and flexible interface tool
available. More than 100 pen
displays were installed on all
seats and form the centerpiece in
the Advanced Concept Teaching
Space “ACTS” of the University
of Queensland in Australia.
The lecture space offers such innovative teaching services that partici-
pants can communicate via pictures and words, take notes and review
them using interactive pen displays. New lecture styles will continue to
be developed using the futuristic system described in this case study. In
Japan, about 2,600 educational institutions have already adopted a total
of 80,000 units of Wacom’s pen tablets and they are enjoying a high
standard of learning using our tools.
The first digital notary document was signed on

an interactive pen display in France.
The French Government recog-

nized the importance of digital
signature technology and the law
was enacted which authorizes
documents to be signed with a
digital signature. In the launch
ceremony of the digital notary
document system which realizes
a totally paperless process, the
first sample was signed on
Wacom’s Cintiq12WX.
The digital notary document system makes it possible to simplify and

speed up procedures in legal process. For example, while French notaries
had to autograph each legal sheet of about 40 pages in the previous
notary system, the new system needs just one digital signature for one
notary document.
Furthermore, notaries and other legal professions expect that electronic

signatures will contribute to saving paper and improving information
security.

Our Businesses
Our company is made up of two business sectors – Electronic Systems and Devices (ESD) and Engineering Collabora-
tive Solutions (ECS). ESD develops and manufacturers pen tablets and pen sensor components as well as touch
technologies. These are the tools that enable users to input digital data in the same way as using a traditional pen on
paper or a paint brush on canvas. ECS develops CAD-based software packages and related systems for the manufac-
turing industry.

Pen tablet families
Our professional pen tablets – Intuos4
Throughout the world, our professional range is unrivalled and acknowl-
edged to be an industry standard with our unique technology, high
performance and quality. It has also been highly acclaimed by our
customers: those professionals who create inspirational movies, anima-
tion, digital art, advertisements and web designs. The Intuos4, enjoys a
high reputation for the new product design techniques, incorporating
universal design and ergonomics, as well as for a design tool to offer
high productivity to professional users.
Our consumer pen tablets – Bamboo

Bamboo, our new consumer family of pen tablets, provides a natural-
to-use tool for expressing creative ideas and communicating in a unique
and more personal way. We have used all of our skill and experience
from our professional market products to create Bamboo, incorporating
the quality and user-friendly features synonymous with our products.
Bamboo can be used and enjoyed by everyone: male or female, young
or old. Our best -selling models are Bamboo and Bamboo Fun. The
former unlocks powerful, pen-based features found in current operating
systems, particularly Microsoft Windows Vista. Bamboo Fun enables
users to intuitively draw, paint, sketch, write or retouch digital photo-
graphs. To sum it up, Bamboo is a new, fun way of working with a
computer.
Our interactive pen displays – Cintiq & DTX/PL

Providing the freedom to work with the pen directly on screen, our
interactive pen displays come in two ranges: the Cintiq, which is
designed for professional graphic artists, and the DTX/PL Series, which
is for more general users. Cintiq interactive pen displays include the high
performance and functionality and are used by many professionals from
photographers to car designers. Not just for the graphics market, these
pen tablets are also invaluable for a variety of additional tasks such as
medical recording, educational systems opening of a bank account,
digital signature and order processing.
Our Components
Not only are our pen sensor components incorporated into our own
high-quality products, but other companies use them. Our brand name
for this patented sensor technology is “Penabled.” The Penabled family
now offers user interface technology solutions to most Tablet PCs.
Moreover, we are developing a multi-touch sensor system which
realizes high performance position sensing of multiple fingers.
12
Wacom Solutions
Not only are they essential tools for graphics professionals, our pen tablets are also garnering praise in other fields,
such as healthcare, education and business. Pen input technology is changing lives by replacing the constraints of
pen and paper with the advanced functionality of digital products.
Medical care
Did you know that our interactive pen displays have become popular
in a variety of medical areas, including electronic medical charts,
pathological reports, endoscopic diagnostic systems, nursing
support, diagnostic imaging and bedside terminals? For example, by
using digital medical charts instead of conventional paper-based
records, medical information can be shared more easily within differ-
ent hospital departments. Handwritten data and sketches are also
being input digitally during interviews and surgical operations.
Crucially, this saves time and effort. These charts also significantly
reduce the storage space required for medical data and enable easy
access to important information.
Education
Presenting educational materials on a screen using a PC and a projec-
tor has become common practice in educational institutions from
primary and secondary schools, colleges and universities to profes-
sional schools, training centers and private e-learning programs. With
interactive pen displays, teachers and lecturers can write notes or
draw diagrams directly on the LCD display, which are then displayed
instantly on the large screen for all to see. In addition, the use of TV
phones and web-based whiteboards helps with remote instruction
and the online correction of student work.
Business
The use of interactive pen displays is increasingly common among
businesspeople in order centers, call centers, cosmetic and beauty
salons, corporate and governmental office reception areas and in
industrial design environments. The digital pen can be used to
capture information during face-to-face meetings with customers,
where data in a corporate style can be entered using a handwriting
interface. This is simply not possible with a keyboard. Consequently,
our pen technology is opening up fresh opportunities in the business
arena.
Meetings and presentations

Using an interactive pen display can bring meetings and presenta-
tions to life. During discussions, digital data can be viewed on an LCD
and notes and amendments added and stored spontaneously during
the meeting. Not only can the use of such a product help speed up
decision-making and communication, but it can also prevent the need
for large volumes of photocopying. Using a digital pen to highlight
information in real time makes the message stronger, more immediate
and easier to comprehend.

Our global model
Back in the 1980s, we set up our corporate headquarters in Japan. We extended our global operations to the United
States and Germany, and then expanded to China, Korea, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong and Taiwan. In addition to
these subsidiaries, we also have sales bases in Shanghai and Moscow. Each of our regional subsidiaries performs
multiple functions. These functions are carried out with localized execution approaches and staff to help forge close
regional ties. We believe that this balanced approach between global strategy and localized execution maximizes our
strength as a global company and helps us to continually offer dynamic products and services that exceed customer
expectations. This has been proven by the fact that the percentage of our overseas sales was 77.9% in our 26th fiscal
year.
