SYSTEM AND METHOD OF GENERATING DIGITAL INK NOTES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17962256 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD OF GENERATING DIGITAL INK NOTES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method and system for automatically generating an ink note object by capturing digital ink input on a user interface screen and collecting contextual data related to the input.
- Detection of digital ink input on a user interface screen
- Capture of the digital ink input
- Collection of contextual data associated with the input
- Generation and storage of an ink note object separate from the document, page, or event
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in digital note-taking applications, collaboration tools, and document management systems.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently capturing and storing handwritten notes in a digital format, while also preserving contextual information related to the notes.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved organization and retrieval of handwritten notes, enhanced collaboration capabilities, and increased efficiency in managing digital documents.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications of this technology include digital note-taking apps, productivity tools for businesses, and software for educational institutions.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art for this technology could be existing digital note-taking applications that allow users to capture handwritten notes and store them digitally.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method of and system for automatically generating an ink note object is carried out by detecting receipt of a digital ink input on a user interface (UI) screen, the UI screen being displayed by an application and being associated with at least one of a document, a page or an event. Once digital ink input is detected, the digital ink input is captured. Additionally, contextual data associated with the digital ink input is collected, the contextual data being related to at least one of the document, the page, the event, and a user providing the digital ink input. An ink note object is then generated and stored for the digital ink input, the ink note object including the captured digital ink input and the contextual data, and the ink note object being an entity that is separate from the document, the page and the even.
