Recognizing a Hand-Drawn Character

  • Article

Hand-drawn alphanumeric character recognition occurs within the boundaries of a box or boxes that you define for the input panel of your target device. Because each box represents a character or glyph, the structure of the applicable language determines how boxes are arranged. For example, the boxes could be arranged from left to right and top to bottom for English. By moving a stylus in a predefined pattern within the box, the handwriting recognition engine processes and recognizes this input, one character, or glyph at a time, and produces the corresponding Unicode output.
