| 20090034845 | System and method for maintaining paper and electronic calendars - The presently described embodiments solve the problem of getting electronic calendar entries back onto the paper calendar. To do so, in one form, according to the presently described embodiments, an inkjet label printer is mounted next to the paper calendar. Each time a daily entry gets updated online, the label printer prints out a new sticky label whose size and markings correspond to the revised paper calendar entry for that day. It is then a simple process for the user to peel off the label and affix it to the correct location on the paper calendar. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20080273797 | Editing System with Digital Pen, Editing Method, and Program Thereof - An editing system is provided which is configured to include a paper | 11-06-2008 |
| 20100002937 | SENSING DEVICE FOR SENSING CODED TAGS - A sensing device is provided having an image sensor for sensing and capturing images of tags on a surface, a processor and a transmitter. Each tag encodes data on an identity associated with the surface and a location and orientation of that tag on the surface. The processor identifies the tags from the captured images, determines an orientation, within the captured images, of the identified coded tags, decodes the data encoded by the tags at the determined orientation, and generates indicating data from the decoded data to include the identity and data regarding a position and/or movement of the sensing device relative to the surface. The transmitter transmits the indicating data to a computer system. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20090052778 | Electronic Annotation Of Documents With Preexisting Content - In a pen-based computing system, a printed version of a document having preexisting content is annotated using a smart pen. The smart pen captures handwriting gestures to obtain an electronic representation of the annotations. The smart pen computing system identifies a digital version of the document having the preexisting content and stores the electronic representation of the annotations in association with the digital document. The smart pen computing system may overlay the electronic representation of the annotations with the preexisting content to provide a digital representation of the annotated document. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20100290706 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INFORMATION PROCESSING AND A HANDWRITING INPUT TERMINAL - The present invention relates to a method for processing information, an information processing system, and a handwriting input terminal. Said information processing system can operate in a handwriting input mode or a click input mode. Such system comprises a plurality of handwriting input terminals, and a data processing center communicatively connected with handwriting input terminals via a transceiver. Said method comprises following steps: S1: configuring a handwriting recognition module and a click position coordinate-key mapping module for the information processing system; S2: receiving information about working mode selection of the information processing system; S3: the handwriting input terminal receives and processes handwriting input signals to obtain coordinate information; S4: selecting the handwriting recognition module or click position coordinate-key mapping module to transform the coordinate information into corresponding character or key information based on the selected working mode. The implementation of the present invention combines the functions of handwriting panel and voting machine (or answering machine), thus achieving either handwriting function or answering function of conveniently sending numbers, letters and symbols of voting machine. | 11-18-2010 |
| 20100067797 | METHOD OF ESTIMATING DIGITAL INK ORIENTATION - A method of estimating the orientation of digital ink is provided. The includes measuring, at a sampling rate during writing by an optically imaging pen on a surface printed with tags, the azimuth of the pen, and estimating, at the computer system, the orientation of the segment of digital ink using the measured azimuth of the pen at the sampled points. Each tag encodes data on an identity of the surface associated with a digital description of the surface and on the respective location of that tag on the surface. The digital description is stored by a computer system networked with the pen and the digital ink is generated by associating the digital description with the data encoded by the tags optically imaged by the pen during the writing. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100067796 | SYSTEM FOR ESTIMATING DIGITAL INK ORIENTATION - A system for estimating the orientation of digital ink is provided which has an optically imaging pen and a processor. The processor measures the azimuth of the pen at a sampling rate during writing by the pen on a surface printed with tags and estimates the orientation of the digital ink using the measured azimuth of the pen at the sampled points. Each tag encodes data on an identity of the surface associated with a digital description of the surface and on the respective location of that tag on the surface. The digital ink is generated by associating the digital description with the data encoded by the tags optically imaged by the pen during the writing. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20110103690 | SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING DIGITAL INK ORIENTATION - A system for determining the orientation of digital ink is provided having a sensing pen and a processor. The system measures the orientation of the pen during writing by the pen on a surface printed with tags. Each tag encodes data on an identity of the surface associated with a digital description of the surface and on the respective location of that tag on the surface. The digital ink is generated by associating the digital description with the data encoded by the tags sensed by the pen during said writing. The orientation of the digital ink is determined using the measured orientation of the pen. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20120093416 | SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING ORIENTATION OF DIGITAL INK - A system for determining the orientation of digital ink is provided having a sensing pen and a processor.
