1. A mobile imaging device for use with erasable media, the device comprising:
- a housing sized to be held and operating using a single hand and arranged to house internal components, the housing comprising a first side and a second side opposite the first side;
wherein the first side comprising;
an input for generating imageable content in the device;
a display for displaying the imageable content;
an actuation selector for initiating imaging of the imageable content; and
an erase selector for initiating an erase action;
the second side comprising;
a sensor for detecting interaction of the device with respect to an imageable surface of an erasable medium, wherein the sensor comprises a surface tracking system configured to correlate a position of the device with respect to the erasable media with a position in the imageable content; and
an imaging component, responsive to the sensor, for outputting the imageable content onto the imageable surface of the erasable medium, the imaging component comprising an ultraviolet light-emitting diode (UV LED) that images or erases the erasable medium,wherein at least the imaging component is movable with respect to the erasable medium.

Abstract
A mobile imaging system includes an erasable medium and an imaging device. The erasable medium can be a UV imageable photochromic medium. The imaging device includes an input for generating imageable content in the device, a sensor for detecting and interpreting interaction of the device with respect to an imageable surface of the erasable medium, and an imaging component, responsive to the sensor, for outputting the generated content onto the imageable surface of the erasable medium.
