Apparatus and method for registering the handwriting of a user so it can be translated into block characters
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus with a hand-writing character recognition function, said apparatus comprising:
- input arbitrary means comprising pen means and a tablet for inputting hand-writing character information of a user;
selecting means for selecting an arbitrary desired block type character on the basis of said hand-writing character information, selection of said block type character corresponding to said hand-writing character information being effected by said hand-writing character recognition function;
detecting means for detecting a similarity condition between first and second hand-written characters input by the user on said input means, said first and second hand-written characters relating to a particular block type character; and
registering means for registering the user'"'"'s hand-writing character information based on said first and second hand-written characters only in response to detection of said similarity condition by said detecting means, wherein after input by the user of a hand-written character similar to said user'"'"'s registered hand-writing character information, the input hand-written character is translated into said desired block type character.

Abstract
An information processing apparatus with a hand-writing character recognition function includes an input device having a pen and tablet for inputting a user'"'"'s hand-writing character information, and a selecting device for selecting a desired block type character on the basis of the hand-writing character information, selection of the block type character (corresponding to the hand-writing character information) being effected by the hand-writing character recognition function. A detecting device detects a similarity condition between first and second hand-written characters initially input by the user on the input device, and hand-writing character information for the user based on the first and second hand-written character is registered if the similarity condition was detected. Subsequently, if the user inputs a hand-written character similar to the user'"'"'s registered hand-writing character information, the input hand-written character is translated into the desired block type character.

8. An information processing method using a hand-writing character recognition function, said method comprising the steps of:
-
selecting a desired block type character on the basis of input hand-writing character information, selection of said block type character corresponding to said hand-writing character information being effected by said hand-writing character recognition function; inputting a first hand-written character by a user on input means; inputting a second hand-written character by the user on said input means; detecting a similarity condition between said first and second hand-written characters; and registering the user'"'"'s hand-writing character information based on said first and second hand-written characters only in response to detection of said similarity condition, wherein after input by the user of a hand-written character similar to said user'"'"'s registered hand-writing character information, the input hand-written character is translated into said desired block type character. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10)

11. An information processing apparatus using a handwriting character recognition function comprising:
-
a) input means having pen means and a tablet for inputting handwriting trace information by a user; b) selecting means for selecting a desired block type character as an object of said handwriting trace information, said block type character corresponding to said handwriting trace information according to said handwriting character recognition function; c) detecting means for detecting a similarity condition between said first trace information input by said input means and a second trace information; d) registering means for registering said user'"'"'s trace information based only on said first and second trace information in response to said detecting means;
after that when said user inputs handwriting trace information similar to said user trace information, the input information is translated to said desired block type character;e) display means disposed under said tablet whereby an image on said display means is shown through said tablet; f) said trace information is displayed real-time on said display means when user inputs said trace information; g) said apparatus has a user trace information registering mode which is selected when a registering window is opened; h) said registering window has a first area for displaying said desired block type character information and a second area adjacent to said first area for inputting said trace information by using said pen means; and i) said registering window has a third area which is displayed for a block type character which is already registered.
