Abstract
A writing system that includes a reusable notebook including a sheet having a working surface. The working surface includes a printed code and an operative control. The writing system includes a writing instrument configured to capture images of the printed code and a computing device configured to communicate with the reusable notebook and/or the writing instrument. The sheet includes a surface coating over the working surface configured so that a writing material of the writing instrument can be removed by applying a dry ancillary device.
Claims16
A writing system, comprising:
- a reusable notebook including a sheet having a working surface, wherein the working surface includes a printed code including an operative control;
- a writing instrument provided with an imaging device configured to capture one or more images during use of the writing instrument on the working surface of the reusable notebook;
- and
- a computing device configured to communicate with the reusable notebook and the writing instrument,
- wherein the sheet includes a surface coating over the working surface configured so that a writing material of the writing instrument can be removed by applying heat to the sheet, the surface coating having a glossy finish.
A method of generating reusable content with a writing system, the writing system including a reusable notebook including a sheet having a working surface, wherein the working surface includes a printed code including an operative control;
- a writing instrument provided with an imaging device configured to capture one or more images during use writing instrument on the working surface of the reusable notebook;
- and a computing device configured to communicate with the reusable notebook and the writing instrument, wherein the sheet includes a surface coating over the working surface configured so that a writing material of the writing instrument can be removed by applying heat to the sheet, the surface coating having a glossy finish, the method comprising the steps of:
- initiating the imaging device of the writing instrument to capture one or more images during use of the writing instrument on the working surface of the reusable notebook;
- converting the one or more images into one or more electronic formats with the computing device;
- and
- generating one or more digitized representations of converted written data into graphical or textual representation.
A method of generating reusable content with a writing system, the writing system including a reusable notebook including a sheet having a working surface, wherein the working surface includes a printed code including an operative control;
- a writing instrument provided with an imaging device configured to capture one or more images during use writing instrument on the working surface of the reusable notebook;
- and a computing device configured to communicate with the reusable notebook and/or the writing instrument, wherein the sheet includes a surface coating over the working surface configured so that a writing material of the writing instrument can be removed by applying heat to the sheet, the surface coating having a glossy finish, the method comprising the steps of:
- initiating the imaging device of the writing instrument to capture one or more images during use of the writing instrument on the working surface of the reusable notebook;
- converting the one or more images into one or more electronic formats with the computing device;
- and
- removing written markings from the reusable notebook, wherein the sheet includes a surface coating over the working surface, and wherein the removing comprises applying heat to the sheet.
