  • Handwriting recognition using cardinal directions between sample points
    Patent number: 11471765
    Abstract: A computer simulation controller such as a PlayStation® Dual Shock® computer game controller has a touchpad to input text with a “palm graffiti” or “unistrokes” type alphabet. As each letter is drawn, it is saved as a file such as a postscript file which is basically a story of the cursor coordinates (started at (1,1) move to (1,3) etc. From there, plural (e.g., fifteen (15)) coordinates (even distribution) are sampled across the set of coordinates to obtain the cardinal directions (N, NE, E, etc.) between them, which are encoded for data processing.
    Type: Grant
