Handwriting systems and operation methods thereof
First Claim
1. A handwriting system, comprising:
- a light source module configured to provide a light source to illuminate an object on a plane;
an image sensing apparatus disposed on the plane and configured to capture an image of the object reflecting lights emitted by the light source; and
a processing circuit electrically connected to the image sensing apparatus and configured to receive the image captured by the image sensing apparatus, analyze a shape of at least one light spot in the captured image, and screen out at least one light spot not conforming to the shape of the object according to an aspect ratio of the at least one light spot in the captured image,wherein when a merged light spot having a width shorter than a threshold at a position is located, the processing circuit is configured to divide the merged light spot into two individual light spots at the position, and determine whether each of the two individual light spots has image characteristics conforming to the shape of the object.

Abstract
A handwriting system includes a light source module, an image sensing apparatus and a processing circuit. The light source module is configured to provide a light source to illuminate an object on a plane. The image sensing apparatus is disposed on the plane and configured to capture an image of the object reflecting light emitted by the light source. The processing circuit is electrically connected to the image sensing apparatus and configured to receive the image captured by the image sensing apparatus, analyze the shape of each of light spot(s) in the captured image and screen out the light spot(s) not conforming to the shape of the object. Another handwriting system and two handwriting system operation methods are also provided.
