## What it is
An iOS library for capturing handwritten signatures using an OpenGL-backed view. It is distributed via CocoaPods and demonstrated with a GLKViewController-based example app.

## Use cases
- capture a handwritten signature on ios
- draw signature with finger in an iphone app
- add signature pad to ios form
- capture customer signature in mobile app
- render smooth signature strokes with opengl

## When to choose
- you need signature capture in a legacy Objective-C iOS app
- you want an OpenGL-based smooth signature drawing view
- you prefer a lightweight CocoaPods-integrated component

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library with recent iOS support
- you want SwiftUI or modern Swift-first integration
- you need multi-platform (Android/web) signature capture

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, image-processing
- domain: mobile-development
- platform: -
- tags: signature-capture, opengl, objective-c, cocoapods, drawing, ios, mobile, swift
