Abstract
A handwriting input apparatus that displays stroke data handwritten based on a position of an input unit contacting a touch panel, includes circuitry configured to implement a handwriting recognition control unit for recognizing stroke data and converting the stroke data into text data, and an authentication control unit for authenticating a user based on the stroke data, and a display unit for displaying a display component for receiving a signature together with the text data when the authentication control unit determines that a user has been successfully authenticated.
Claims18
A handwriting input apparatus that displays handwritten stroke data based on a position of an input unit contacting a touch panel, the handwriting input apparatus comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- receive a handwriting input operation by which a user inputs the stroke data,
- recognize the stroke data and convert the stroke data into text data as the stroke data is being input;
- display on a display
- the recognized stroke data as the handwriting input operation proceeds, and
- an operation guide that includes one or more selectable character string candidates of the converted text data as the stroke data is being input;
- authenticate a user based on the recognized stroke data;
- and
- display a display component for accepting sign-in of the user upon successful authentication of the user, the display component being displayed in the operation guide.
A handwriting input method in which a handwriting input apparatus displays handwritten stroke data based on a position of an input unit in contact with a touch panel, the handwriting input method comprising:
- receiving a handwriting input operation by which a user inputs the stroke data;
- recognizing the stroke data;
- converting the stroke data into text data;
- displaying on a display
- the recognized stroke data as the handwriting input operation proceeds, and
- an operation guide that includes one or more selectable character string candidates of the converted text data,
- authenticating a user based on the recognized stroke data;
- and
- displaying a display component for accepting sign-in of the user upon successful authentication of the user, the display component being displayed in the operation guide.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium recording a program implemented by a processor installed in a handwriting input apparatus that displays handwritten stroke data based on a position of an input unit contacting a touch panel, the program performing:
- receiving a handwriting input operation by which a user inputs the stroke data;
- recognizing the stroke data;
- converting the stroke data into text data;
- displaying on a display
- the recognized stroke data as the handwriting input operation proceeds, and
- an operation guide that includes one or more selectable character string candidates of the converted text data;
- authenticating a user based on the recognized stroke data;
- and
- displaying a display component for accepting sign-in of the user upon successful authentication of the user, the display component being displayed in the operation guide.
