Abstract
An electronic drawing system configured to edit a physical drawing and communicate the edit to a host electronic device that renders a digital rendition of the physical drawing. The electronic system device includes a control circuit configured to communicate with an element that enables erasing at least a portion of the physical drawing. The control circuit generates at least one signal representative of the erasing, where the at least one signal is capable of being processed to edit the digital representation corresponding to the erasing.
Claims15
A method of editing a digital representation on a host electronic device of a physical drawing using an electronic drawing device configured to edit the physical drawing, comprising the steps of:
- erasing at least a portion of the physical drawing on a physical medium;
- generating at least one signal representative of the erasing;
- and
- processing the at least one signal to produce an output that may be processed by the host electronic device to edit the digital representation corresponding to the erasing.
An electronic drawing system configured to edit a physical drawing and communicate the edit to a host electronic device that renders a digital rendition of the physical drawing, comprising:
- a control circuit configured to communicate with an element that enables erasing at least a portion of the physical drawing, the control circuit further configured to generating at least one signal representative of the erasing, the at least one signal capable of being processed to edit the digital representation corresponding to the erasing.
The electronic device of system 8, wherein the electronic drawing device communicates the at least one signal using a short range communications protocol.
