Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for inputting data into a computing device, and particularly for presenting form content on a computing device having a limited viewing area for receiving input from a user. A protocol or other data is obtained that specifies a plurality of fields into which input data can be entered. Each field is associated with a field group. The field group specifies an ordering of all fields assigned to the field group. The fields are presented in series, one at a time, on a display screen of the computing device. The presentation occurs according to an ordering specified in the field group. Input data is received as it is entered into each field of the plurality of fields during a data entry session. The input data is incorporated into form data corresponding to the data entry session. The form data is made accessible to a third-party application.

Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods for performing pen position triangulation for handwriting capture on forms. In one example, a system includes a base body configured to be placed over a form. The base body includes at least one receiver for receiving a multilateration signal from an emitter located on a writing utensil. A processor performs multilateration (e.g., triangulation) to determine a relative position of the writing utensil's emitter. A memory stores the relative position of the emitter. A detector detects an orientation identifier and/or form identifier located on the form. The orientation identifier and/or form identifier are used to determine an absolute position of the emitter with respect to the form.
