Drawing on the Back of an Envelope: a framework for interacting with application programs by freehand drawing

  • Where: Computers and Graphics | Vol. 24 (6) (2000) pp. 835-849 | 2000
  • Abstract
    The Back of an Envelope project demonstrates how a calligraphic interface (one that employs a pen or stylus to input freehand drawing marks) can be used in a wide variety of domains, from databases to simulation programs, to 3D modeling, from mostly symbolic diagrams to freeform sketches. The wide variety of drawing types and domains calls for a diverse range of approaches. We describe some of the functionality of our systems, including contextual recognition of symbols and configurations and emergent shape recognition, and some of the calligraphic interfaces we've built.
