The invention is directed to a system for and method of handwriting recognition. More particularly, both dynamic and static (the static being obtained by processing the dynamic) handwriting information are obtained and these two types of information are employed to obtain recognition results which are then merged from both to obtain a most probable recognized character. Representative independent claim 1 is reproduced as follows: 1. A handwriting recognition system, comprising: handwriting transducer means, responsive to a handwriting input from a user, for outputting corresponding time ordered stroke information; first means, having an input coupled to an output of said handwriting transducer means, for determining a first list comprised of at least one probable character that the corresponding time ordered stroke information is intended to represent; means, having an input coupled to said output of said handwriting transducer means, for converting the corresponding time ordered stroke information to static stroke information; second means, having an input coupled to an output of said converting means, for determining at least one second 2Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
