Abstract

This paper presents a new method of capturing digital ink for pen-based computing. Current technologies such as tablets, ultrasonic and the Anoto pens rely on special mechanisms for locating the pen tip,which result in limiting the applicability.Our proposal is to ease this problem --- a camera pen that allows us to write on ordinary paper for capturing digital ink. A document image retrieval method called LLAH is tuned to locate the pen tip efficiently and accurately on the coordinates of a document only by capturing its tiny fragment.In this paper, we report some results on captured digital ink as well as to evaluate their quality.
