Appl. No.:

10/919061

Inventors:

Gregory J. Clary - Apex NC, US
Roger L. Booth - Apex NC, US
Christopher M. DiPierro - Durham NC, US

International Classification:

G06K 9/00
G06K 9/36
G06F 15/00

US Classification:

382187, 382284

Abstract:

A system, computer program product and method are provided that smooth handwritten information following the transmission of handwritten data to a second computing device, thereby reducing the memory, processing and communications bandwidth requirements of a first computing device that captured the handwritten information. A system, computer program product and method are also provided for creating new points in the vicinity of at least some of the data points of the handwritten data after transmission of the data, thereby effectively improving the resolution of the handwritten information without increasing the memory, processing and communications bandwidth requirements of the first computing device. A system, computer program product and method are further provided that associate additional data with the handwritten information after the information has been transmitted such that a composite can be created without increasing the memory, processing and communications bandwidth requirements of the first computing device.

International Classification:

G06K 9/18

US Classification:

382186, 382185, 382190

Abstract:

A pen-enabled computing arrangement includes a handwriting capture interface and at least one processing element, such as in the form of a computing system and a digital pen that embodies a writing stylus. The handwriting capture interface can capture an electronic handwriting input. The processing element can sense an identifier associated with an object, and associate electronic handwriting input with the object. The processing element can then process the electronic handwriting input based upon the associated object. Printed paper with which the arrangement can operate to effectuate capturing and processing data may also be provided. Further, triggered verification of the sensed identifier may be provided when the identifier is sensed based upon initial electronic handwriting input corresponding to the identifier and the sensed identifier is unknown and/or improper.
