ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING HANDWRITING INPUT THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18491152 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING HANDWRITING INPUT THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an electronic device with a touch screen, memory, and processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, enable the processor to perform handwriting recognition on a first handwriting input displayed on the touch screen. The handwriting recognition identifies the corresponding text and applies at least one color of the handwriting input to the text. A first rich text, with the applied color, is presented adjacent to the handwriting input. If requested, the first handwriting input can be replaced with the first rich text.

• The electronic device includes a touch screen, memory, and processor.
• The memory stores instructions for handwriting recognition and color application.
• Handwriting recognition is performed on a first handwriting input displayed on the touch screen.
• The corresponding text is identified and at least one color of the handwriting input is applied to the text.
• A first rich text, with the applied color, is presented adjacent to the handwriting input.
• The first handwriting input can be replaced with the first rich text upon request.

Potential Applications:

• Digital note-taking applications
• Electronic signature verification
• Language learning tools
• Interactive educational materials

Problems Solved:

• Efficient handwriting recognition on electronic devices
• Seamless integration of handwriting and text
• Enhanced visual representation of handwritten input

Benefits:

• Improved user experience in handwriting recognition
• Easy conversion of handwriting to rich text format
• Enhanced visual appeal and readability of handwritten content

Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is an electronic device including a touch screen, a memory and a processor, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to detect a handwriting recognition request for a first handwriting input while displaying the first handwriting input on the touch screen, in response to detecting the handwriting recognition request, perform the handwriting recognition for the first handwriting input to identify a text corresponding to the first handwriting input, apply at least one color of the first handwriting input identified based on the handwriting recognition to the text, present a first rich text to which the at least one color has been applied, adjacent to the first handwriting input, and in response to a request for replacing the first handwriting input with the first rich text, replace the first handwriting input with the first rich text.
