  • Publication number: 20160154772
    Abstract: In many environments such as municipal, military and construction the use of digital and paper systems permits end users to create or modify features on digital document, attributes associated with those features, or attribute values associated with those features. The attribute value management system includes a digital pen, at least one digital document, one or more computing devices, and a number of software programs for creating data relationships between the digital documents (e.g., features on maps and their underlying attribute values), interpreting voice or handwritten data, validating the interpreted data, and uploading the validated data to a geo-database. The attribute value management system functions to create, update or otherwise change the attribute values associated with the features by a temporal association method; a linked identification method; or a direct handwriting method.

  • Patent number: 8719718
    Abstract: A digital paper-enabled product includes digital paper with a digital pattern that spatially cooperates with one or more features or boundaries printed on the pattern. More specifically, a system cooperating with the product may include spatial information systems that manage the features or boundaries and communicates with a writing instrument that was used to effect changes to the digital paper-enabled product. In one embodiment, the digital paper-enabled product may take the form of a sheet of digital paper bearing a digital pattern and where action icons (e.g. user intended actions) and/or features (e.g. such as map features) or a spatial reference frame are printed onto the digital pattern and where at least one action palette is printed onto the digital pattern, correlated therewith, and usable to effect changes to the product.

  • Patent number: 8564548
    Abstract: A digital palette and a digital pen device are used to create or manipulate a digital document to provide complex information using features, such as graphical features selected from stencils, shapes, and connectors and possibly to apply one or more attributes to the digital document. The digital palette may have a custom layout. The features on the digital palette may be selected from a variety of sources, such as digital stencil libraries. The digital palette and digital document may be arranged on the same or different sheets of digital paper overlying one or more digital patterns. Information communicated from the digital palette to the digital document may be uploaded, processed, reviewed, changed and stored in a computer. Lastly, the digital document may be finalized and printed to incorporate all changes previously made using the digital palette, the digital pen device and the computer.

  • Publication number: 20090298026
    Abstract: A system for administering a neuropsychological test using a digital pen and paper system includes various recognition modules for interpreting ink markings applied by the digital pen to a digital testing document. The recognition modules may interpret handwriting, symbols, sketches, etc. In addition, the system may include one or more error correction modules for detecting and correcting test-taker-driven errors or recognition-driven errors. The error correction module may operate in real time to communicate with the test taker, may be employed before a normalizing and scoring process or some combination of both. In one embodiment, normalized data or automatically determined test scores obtained after appropriate correction may be transmitted to a patient record or file to await a review and possible diagnosis by a mental health provider.

  • Publication number: 20080301542
    Abstract: A digital paper-enabled system includes a spreadsheet printed on digital paper and usable with a digital writing instrument, such as a digital pen. A method of using the system includes (1) designing a digital paper-enabled spreadsheet with a spreadsheet integration module; (2) printing the designed spreadsheet to receive writing from a digital pen (3) uploading data from the digital pen to a processing system; (4) reviewing the uploaded data using a display device associated with the processing system; and (5) storing the uploaded data, which may include exporting one or more portions of the uploaded data to another display or processing system.

  • Publication number: 20080282138
    Abstract: Methods and systems for multimedia object association to digital paper spatial diagrams are disclosed herein. A method for multimedia object association to digital paper spatial diagrams includes the steps of (1) capturing a media object to be imported into a spatial information system; (2) linking the captured media object to a digital paper document containing a spatial diagram, using a input device configured to select a linking action area located in a first area of the digital paper document and configured to select a location for the captured multimedia data object on a second area of the digital paper document; (3) transferring the media object and the data from the input device to a spatial information system; and (4) combining the media object and the data of the input device to create an updated digital paper document containing the media object.
