Sketch-interpreting: The magic slate of the MIT

For a long time, MIT had in its lab software that, from freehand figure drawn on a screen, perform recognition and conversion to software for geometrical accurate data.

In addition the software recognizes symbols of electronics and can recognize a diagram or drawing of circuit. And also chemical symbols from which it can reproduce the molecules.

But he lacked material for public use. With iPad and other PC tablets, or smartphones, the hardware is now available.

Video demonstration

As you can see, a simple pencil whose movements on a touch screen are recognized by the software is enough to write on the surface like on a magic slate.
