ISP Information:
A pen-like device that is sensitive to light. More specifically, it is sensitive to the electron gun of a CRT monitor hitting it. Based on when the electron gun hits the light pen, a computer can determine where on a CRT screen the light pen is positioned. Thus, light pens can be used to "draw" on CRT screens, or can be used just like mice or other pointing devices.
ISP Glossary:
