ROCKETBOOK WAVE DETAILS:
MACHINE VISION
The Rocketbook System is the combination of a special notebook and a free mobile app. Write notes and create designs in your notebook with a pen. Then, using patent-pending image capture technology, the Rocketbook app accurately and quickly captures and sends your notes to pre-configured cloud services.

SEVEN SYMBOLS
The seven symbols at the bottom of each page are the magic “buttons” behind the Rocketbook’s quick and easy cloud organization. You assign each icon to the destination of your choice, any folder inside Dropbox, Evernote, Google Docs, OneNote or your email address. When you mark that icon on your page, the Rocketbook app automatically files your notes in the right place.

IMAGE PROCESSING

Our specially designed thermal logo on the cover tells you when your Rocketbook is done. Simply microwave both sides with a mug of water until the logo turns from blue to white. It will return to blue when cool.

INTELLIGENT PAGES
Each page of your Rocketbook Wave contains a special QR code which tells the Rocketbook app the page number of each scan. That means no matter how or when you scan your Wave, we can always get your notes in the right order.
Each page also has a narrow dark border surrounding it. The border allows the Rocketbook app to find your page quickly in any environment or background.

DOT GRID+
The pages all feature a unique dot grid pattern that is perfect for both text notes, sketches and diagrams.
NO NOTEBOOK? NO PROBLEM.

MAXIMIZING WAVE REUSE
Frixion ink turns clear with heat, but it doesn’t completely evaporate. This means in some lighting, old notes will appear as faint “ghost” images. Fortunately, Frixion pens continue to write perfectly over clear ink and our proprietary machine vision won’t be disturbed by old notes.
Although the book will “work” indefinitely, much like other reusable items the number of reuses you will get depends on a number of factors. These include your note density, pen type, pen pressure, typical lighting and a general tolerance of ghosts. Generally users can expect up to 10 reuses.

FAQ
1) Which file types does Rocketbook provide?
Initially, the file format which Rocketbook will save to the cloud will be a high quality PNG. Remember, the Rocketbook app will select, correct, crop and color balance each sheet. For email, we will collate the selected number of pages and send a PDF. We will also provide the option to store the original files in an online Rocketbook repository.
2) Will Rocketbook detect my handwritten notes and transcribe them into text?
Your notes will be indexed by handwriting recognition when you send them to Evernote. We are also investigating future Rocketbook features that will use handwriting recognition to enrich the Rocketbook experience such as automatically capturing the written title of the page to create the text title of the document.
3) What if I leave my Rocketbook in the car on a very hot/cold day?
FriXion pen ink turns clear at 140
°F/60
°C. It regains its color at 40°F/4°C. So make sure you scan your notes with the app before you leave your Rocketbook somewhere extremely hot or cold.
4) Do I have to buy a Rocketbook to get access to the app.
Yes, just once. The purchase of one Rocketbook grants you lifetime access to the app, on both Android and iOS, for life.
Once you have access to the app, you will also have access to free PDFs and editable Google Docs, so you can even print your own pages and even customize and bind your own books for personal use.
We believe in providing you freedom, and not locking you into a system where you must buy books from us. We want you to have a proper Rocketbook to enjoy the best best experience when you first use Rocketbook. You will continue to buy Rocketbooks if you love the books and find them to be a great value.
5) If I buy several Rocketbooks for friends and family, will they get access to the app, too?
Yes, each Rocketbook includes access to the app for one user, across iOS and Android devices.
6) Is Rocketbook patent protected?
Yes, we have numerous patents pending on the app technology and the physical book.
7) I changed my mind. Can I get a refund?
You're contribution to our crowdfunding campaigns makes it possible to bring Rocketbook Wave into the world, and we're spending all our time and resources in delivering the product. Thank you in advance for understanding that we do not offer cancellations or refunds at this time.
8) Will my country charge me customs fees or import duty tax? Or can you declare my package to be worth less so I can avoid customs fees?
All Rocketbook orders are shipped from the United States. Depending on your government policies, your government might charge you for receiving goods from the US. Thank you in advance for understanding that this policy and your obligation to pay customs is an issue between your country and its citizens, and we cannot help any customer to avoid paying customs fees by providing inaccurate customs forms.
ABOUT ROCKET INNOVATIONS:
JOE LEMAY, CEO
Working for companies like Nuance and Salesforce.com, Joe Lemay cut his teeth developing and selling large scale systems deployed for Fortune 500 companies to serve millions of users. In both engineering and business development, Joe experienced the power of the traditional writing surfaces. “Whenever we tackle big problems or think of grand ideas, we need the easiest way to get those ideas out of our heads, and onto paper. The cloud offers incredible value, but any electronic device or technology just creates friction for brainstorming. So I assembled this team to design the technology that gets out of the way, and so we can all use the most natural writing surfaces to help us think and innovate.”
