Method, article, apparatus and computer system facilitating the easy and intuitive inputting of a desired graphical object into an electronic system from a large plurality of predetermined graphical objects. In one example embodiment, this is achieved by assigning each of said graphical objects into one of a plurality of groups in accordance with a predetermined similarity criterion, associating respective base shapes to each of said groups, wherein said base shapes having a certain degree of similarity to the objects assigned to the associated group according to said similarity criterion and associating in each of said groups at least one gesture to each of said graphical objects, so that the associated gestures are distinguishable from each other. In order to input the desired graphical object, one of the groups is selected by selecting its base shape and then the desired graphical object is identified by drawing the respective gesture associated thereto.

A practical and natural way of inputting syllables of scripts into a computer. In one example embodiment, This is achieved by selecting a base character from a set of characters using a digitizing tablet [1216]. The selected base character is then modified by drawing one or more natural handwritten modifying gestures to form a current desired syllable. An associated data of the formed current desired syllable is then inputted into a gesture-keypad-engine [1230] via the digitizing tablet [1216] upon completion of the drawing of the one or more natural handwritten modifying gestures. The gesture-keypad-engine [1230] then produces a current candidate syllable as a function of the inputted associated data of the formed current desired syllable. The produced current candidate syllable is then displayed on a display device [540].

摘要:
A method and system for attention-free user input on a computing device is described that allows the recognition of a user input irrespective of the area of entry of the user input on a writing surface (such as a digitizer) without the user having to make a visual contact with the writing surface.

A method for communicating media program information is provided. The method includes receiving a content-augmented broadcast signal at a conventional broadcast receiver, the content-augmented broadcast signal having a program content and a program cookie relating to the program content, demodulating the content-augmented broadcast signal, rendering the program content, recovering the program cookie from the demodulated content-augmented broadcast signal at substantially the same time the program content is rendered, determining whether the program cookie comprises information relating to a current media program a user is currently watching or listening to, or to an advertisement of a future media program, and sending the program cookie to an electronic device.
摘要:
A technique for continuously recognizing a character entry into a computer. In one example embodiment, this is achieved by drawing a character in a continuous stroke order using a stylus [210] on touch screen [220]. As associated data of the drawn continuous stroke order is then inputted into a continuous character recognizer [930] via the touch screen [220]. One or more hypothesis candidate characters including the continuous stroke order are then produced by the continuous character recognizer [930] upon a partial recognition. The produced one or more hypothesis candidate characters are then displayed substantially over the drawn continuous stroke order on a display device [230].
摘要:
A system for recognizing handwritten data is provided. The system includes an electronic pen and a computing device. The electronic pen is used for forming handwritten data on a medium and for generating an electronic form of the handwritten data. The computing device is used for recognizing the handwritten data based on the electronic form of the handwritten data. The computing device is programmable to generate at least one alternative handwritten data and allows a user to select the at least one alternative handwritten data to replace the recognized handwritten data.
