Android Virtual Pen allows to send pen input data from your android device to a pc host where it emulates a virtual pen. What distinguishes this solution from others, is emphasis on low-latency to provide the best drawing experience.

Features:

Adjustable pen pressure threshold such that you can move the pen-cursor without triggering an unintended click/draw action
Adjustable pen pressure sensitivity such that you can customize the force needed to be applied
Switch between stretched and fixed display mode
- In stretched mode, the android device screen is stretched and completely mapped to your PC primary screen. Note that this is required to fully reach the boundaries of your PC screen from your device but causes some slight distortion if the screen ratios (android vs PC) are not the same.
- In fixed mode, if the android device screen resolution fits into your PC screen, it is centered and mapped on that latter screen at a 1:1 ratio. This mode should incurr no distortion.
Detect available usb devices and automatically save your settings for each

Limitations:

Can only target one screen on the PC host (primary screen)
Pen tilt is currently not supported (please do ask if you need this feature)
No support on host side for MacOS and Windows

Download Source Issues ChangeLog

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
