    摘要: In accordance with embodiments of the invention, embedded interaction code (EIC) symbols are recognized. EIC dots are generated based on effective EIC symbols, which have been generated by processing an image containing the EIC symbols, by obtaining graylevels of selected positions of the EIC-symbols. Rotated EIC dots are generated based on the EIC dots by determining which grid cells correspond to the EIC symbols and by determining which direction is a correct orientation of the EIC symbols. A homography matrix is updated with orientation information based on the EIC dots. EIC bits are extracted from the rotated EIC dots based on graylevels of selected positions of the rotated EIC dots.

    摘要: Methods and apparatuses that synchronize a paper document to an associated digital document by establishing a mapping. An embedded interactive code (EIC) Document is created as a digital file that serves as an intermediate tier between the paper document and the digital document. Both the paper document and the EIC document are generated while printing the paper document. The EIC document records the corresponding EIC array allocations and a unique document identification number. An image capturing pen may generate a stroke on any page of paper document. With the EIC document, the methods and apparatuses inform an application the page and location on the page of the stroke.

    摘要: X-y positions of a digital pen's tip may be determined by using a calibration parameter to map the x-y positions of the respective centers of images captured by the pen's camera. The calibration parameter may be generated by iteratively calculating estimates of the calibration parameter. The iteratively calculated estimates may be based on a gradient of an error function of the iteratively generated estimates. Calibration input data may be produced by a user placing the pen tip in a fixed location on a surface, which may be a positionally encoded medium, such as paper, and then rotating the pen and/or moving the opposite end of the pen in various directions to capture multiple images for use in generating the calibration parameter. A user may perform such a calibration procedure without the need for complicated calibration equipment typically used in connection with conventional calibration techniques.

    摘要: A technique is disclosed for determining a portion of a document corresponding to a captured image. A user employs a pen to create a stroke in a document, and images are captured by a camera mounted on the pen. The locations of some of the images are determined by, e.g., analyzing a pattern on the document captured by the image or by a pixel-by-pixel comparison of the image with the document. The locations of other images are determined by segmenting the sequence of images into groups corresponding to the shape of the stroke. Information relating to a located image in a segment is employed to determine the position of an unlocated image in the segment. This determined position is used for obtaining further information that may be used to determine the position of another unlocated image in the segment, and so on, until the segment is finished.
