Abstract

A handwriting capture system which includes a handwriting capture device containing a segmented digitizer. The handwriting capture device also includes circuitry which processes handwriting information entered into the segmented digitizer, a controller which determines position coordinates associated with the handwriting information, a memory coupled to the controller which stores position coordinates, and circuitry coupled between the controller and the segmented digitizer which drives and calibrates the segmented digitizer. The system also includes a host computer system coupled to the controller through an interface so that the controller can upload positional coordinates to the host system.
