The Inkling digital sketch pen captures a digital likeness of your work while you sketch with its ballpoint tip on any sketchbook or standard piece of paper. Designed for rough concepting and creative brainstorming, Inkling is ideal for the front end of the creative process. Later, refine your work on your computer using an Intuos5 tablet or Cintiq interactive pen display.

In addition to capturing your sketch, stroke by stroke, Inkling allows you to create layers in digital files while you sketch on paper. Digital files are transferred to your computer using the Inkling Sketch Manager software, and later, exported to applications such as Adobe® Photoshop® and Illustrator®. Files can also be opened with the included Inkling Sketch Manager software to edit, delete, add layers or change file formats.

I have been using the Inkling for some time now and love the flexability it gives me when sketching. I know that I can export the file and manipulate it in photoshop or illustrator. 

I can then use my Cintiq to complete the final piece of work. Although the Inkling is not a 100% accurate it suits my style of illustration and in my opinion give great results.

I have included an example gallery below showing the results the inkling can produce.
