Abstract

A hand-held marking device comprises an electrically actuated writing head (20) for making marks on a writing surface and a sensor (40) for detecting when the writing head is moving in any direction in a plane parallel to the surface. The device in-cludes means (57) for causing the head to be actuated when the sensor detects relative movement of the writing head and the sur-face. The writing head can be arranged to be able to make a plurality of different types or sizes of marks on a writing surface, in which case means (53-55) are provided for selecting which of the different mark types or sizes is to be made.
