Abstract
Handwriting recognition is performed by sensing a trace signal, where the trace represents a handwritten intended symbol. A digital representation of the trace signal is then stored and compared with a plurality of candidate symbols. Depending on the outcome of the comparison, a best candidate symbol among the candidate symbols is recognised and displayed, or the digital representation of the trace signal is displayed.
Claims8
A method of handwriting recognition comprising:
- sensing a trace signal, said trace representing a handwritten intended symbol,
- storing a digital representation of the trace signal,
- comparing the digital representation of the trace signal with a plurality of candidate symbols,
- depending on the outcome of the comparison, recognising a best candidate symbol among the candidate symbols and displaying the best candidate symbol, or displaying the digital representation of the trace signal.
