Apple has included a new sensor in the barrel that detects a user’s squeeze. A simple squeeze on the PencilPro brings up a tool palette, allowing you to quickly switch between tools and line weights, as well as colors. The Pencil Pro also includes a custom built-in haptic engine that enhances intuitive gestures such as squeezing and double tapping.

In addition, there is a built-in gyroscope that can be rolled over to give users precise control over the tool they are using. According to Apple, rotation of the barrel will change the orientation of shaped pen & brush tools, as well as pen & paper, says the company.
