Handwriting Gestures
Been a while since the last post, so I thought I’d share a little of what I’ve been working on lately. In the last couple of days, I’ve put together this simple gesture library to try and recognize gestures as letters to create a simple little app that types out what you write on screen.
Each letter or object has been given a series of points in a certain order, that are all stored in a series of arrays that runs a function that searches for the closest match and then prints out that target to the screen (see above for an example).
So far it can only create the letters of the alphabet in capital letters (and numbers), but would quite like to add more to this-punctuation marks etc. Maybe also some kind language changer would be an idea. At the moment its basically just a single touch application, but I feel there could be more functionality added to it by adding in more than one touch, but at the same time keeping it so it isn’t overly complicated and simple to use…
