Cupertino (CA) and Portland (OR), Jan. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Professional artists and designers who require resource-heavy applications and access to terabytes of data on powerful workstations and are working on the latest Wacom Cintiq, Cintiq Pro and Intuos Pro devices using Splashtop. They can now harness the full potential power of Wacom's interactive pen display technology from any device and enjoy a secure, seamless digital creative experience from anywhere.
Wacom and Splashtop have collaborated over the past few years to solve the challenges associated with remote workflows for creative artists of all types, including concept artists, storyboarders, computer graphics pros, video editors and any other artists working in a data-intensive workflow.
