The paper introduces a new method for capturing the digital trace of handwriting written on regular paper. It combines a sensor-equipped digital pen with advanced AI algorithms to reconstruct the pen’s trajectory in real time, eliminating the need for specialized styluses or substrates. The approach integrates hardware development and embedded AI software to enable seamless digitization of traditional handwriting.

Digital pens are commonly used to write on digital devices, providing the handwriting trace and enhancing human-computer interation. This study focuses on a digital pen equipped with kinematic sensors, allowing users to write on any surface while simultaneously preserving a digital trajectory of handwriting.
The paper presents a two‑stage method for recovering handwriting trajectories from static images. First, it predicts ordered stroke instances autoregressively, then reconstructs continuous motion within each stroke using direction‑related cues. Experiments on Chinese, English, and Tamil handwriting show that this ordered prediction outperforms post‑hoc ordering and baseline models, and that sampling density significantly impacts performance.
