  • Patent number: 10614330
    Abstract: A method for recognizing characters of handwritten input text includes: receiving, by a handwriting input area, a handwritten input text from a user; calculating, by a controller, a center axis of the handwritten input text; calculating, by the controller, a rotation angle of the center axis based on a reference axis; correcting, by the controller, a slope of the handwritten input text by the rotation angle so that the slope of the handwritten input text is parallel to the reference axis; and performing, by the controller, character recognition of the handwritten input text acquired by correction of the slope.
