Systems for Generating Stroked Paths
In implementations of systems for generating stroked paths, a computing device implements a stroked path system to receive input data describing a vector object having a filled path. The stroked path system generates a medial axis for the filled path by performing a medial axis transform on a boundary of the filled path. A stroke width is estimated based on distances between the medial axis and the boundary of the filled path that are normal to the medial axis. The stroked path system generates a stroked path for display in a user interface that is visually similar to the filled path based on the medial axis and the stroke width.
Ultrasound based air-writing system and method
A method for motion tracking and text recognition, the method including a step of generating ultrasound waves with a transmitter; a step of receiving the ultrasound waves at a receiver, the receiver including sensors that record the ultrasound waves; a step of estimating with a processor, angle-of-arrival information for the ultrasound waves; a step of associating the angle-of-arrival information with a gesture; a step of extracting features from the gesture; and a step of classifying the gesture as a specific text character based on the extracted features by comparing the extracted features with known text characters stored in one or more templates.
Semantic segmentation for stroke classification in inking application
A data processing system for performing a semantic analysis of digital ink stroke data implements obtaining the digital ink stroke data representing handwritten text, drawings, or both; analyzing the digital ink stroke data to extract path signature feature information from the digital ink stroke data; analyzing the path signature feature information using a convolutional neural network (CNN) trained to perform a pixel-level sematic analysis of the digital ink stroke data and to output a pixel segmentation map with semantic prediction information for each pixel of digital ink stroke data; analyzing the pixel segmentation map to generate stroke-level semantic information using a pixel-to-stroke conversion model; and processing the digital ink stroke data based on the stroke-level semantic information.

Systems, devices, and methods for physical surface tracking with a stylus device in an AR/VR environment
A method includes receiving sensor data from one or more sensors that corresponds to a location of a stylus device and determining that a tip of the stylus device is in contact with a physical surface based on the sensor data. While in contact, the method includes determining a new location of the tip of the stylus device based on the location data, mitigating a tracking error of the determined new location of the tip of the stylus device by translating the new location from a 3D space domain to a 2D space domain that corresponds to the physical surface and adjusting the new location based on a comparison of the new location and historical locations. The stylus device can further ascertain surface characteristics through sensor data and simulate surface characteristics via haptic feedback effects.
System and method for processing text handwriting in a free handwriting mode
The invention concerns a method comprising: detecting strokes of digital ink input on a computing device in a free handwriting format; detecting a text block from said strokes; performing text recognition on each text line of said text block, including extracting text lines from the text block and generating model data that associate each stroke of the text block with a character, a word and a text line of the text block; normalizing each text line from the free handwriting format into a structured format to comply with a document pattern. The normalization may comprise for each text line: computing a transform function to transform said text line into the structured format; applying the transform function to the text line; and updating the model data of said text line based on the transform function.
