A program that allowed users to draw on a screen with a {light pen}. It supported constraints (e.g. drawing a constrained ellipse produced a circle). It also had some {computer aided design} features (e.g. computing loads on beams). Sketchpad was the subject of href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Ivan E. Sutherland">Ivan E. Sutherland' s 1963 href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=MIT">MIT PhD thesis, which opened the field of href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=computer graphics">computer graphics. It was the progenitor of computer drawing packages like href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=MacDraw">MacDraw or href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Adobe Illustrator">Adobe Illustrator. There is a film of Sketchpad in action.
