Stroke and image aggregation and analytics
First Claim
1. A method for stroke aggregation and analysis, the method comprising:
- sending a first formatted message including a background image of a page to a plurality of portable computing devices;
receiving a plurality of return messages from the plurality of portable computing devices, the plurality of return messages including stroke data input in relation to the background image of the page;
aggregating, with one or more processors, the stroke data from the plurality of return messages to produce aggregated data;
analyzing, with the one or more processors, the aggregated data to produce analyzed data, the analyzed data including the stroke data received in relation to the background image of the page from each of the plurality of return images;
generating, with the one or more processors, a visual representation of the analyzed data, the visual representation including the stroke data received from each of the plurality of return images, wherein the return images are scaled; and

Abstract
The present invention overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art with a system for stroke and image aggregation and analytics. The system is particularly advantageous because it provides a system for distributing page images such as worksheets, examinations or forms to multiple devices. The system allows independent paging and writing on the distributed materials; collection of the strokes added to the distributed pages images; and aggregating and displaying those strokes or summary information in a useful manner. For example, an instructor might receive the current work of the students for a particular examination question and view those strokes in a parallel manner or a combined manner.
