Abstract

Writing recognition using a wearable pressure sensing device includes receiving pressure measurement data from a pressure sensor disposed upon a body part of a user. The pressure measurement data is indicative of a change in pressure of the body part due to an interaction of the body part with a medium indicative of a writing gesture by the user. A start boundary and end boundary for each of a plurality of writing symbols is detected based upon the pressure measurement data. At least one feature of the pressure measurement data associated with the plurality of writing symbols is extracted. A symbol pattern is detected based upon the extracted features, and at least one letter is detected based upon the symbol pattern. A word is detected based upon the detected at least one letter.
