  • Patent number: 11604512
    Abstract: In a handwriting recognition system, a fingertip-motion sensing device has first and second body parts respectively wearable on a distal phalanx and a proximal phalanx of a finger, and a bendable bridge connecting the two body parts. An accelerometer module in the first body part generates acceleration data of the fingertip motion whereas a battery module powering the accelerometer module is in the second body part, avoiding the first body part to be loaded with the battery module so as to reduce hindrance to a user in handwriting. The bridge is wavily shaped, enabling it to be extensible and retractable to avoid spurious interference generation due to unintended movement between the first body part and the distal phalanx. The sensing device wirelessly transmits the acceleration data to a computing device, which analyzes the acceleration data to determine handwritten characters by using a machine-learning classifier, preferably a convolutional neural network.
