First Claim
Patent Images
1. An article of manufacture comprising:
- a writing surface having at least one region that is configured to accept information,the at least one region being further configured to receive a machine-distinguishable identifier keyed to a data receptor, the machine-distinguishable identifier being configured to be electronically distinguished by a processing device such that an input to the at least one region associated with the machine-distinguishable identifier is electronically transmitted to the data receptor.

12. A system comprising:
-
a writing surface having at least one region that is configured to accept handwriting, the at least one region being further configured to receive a machine-distinguishable identifier keyed to a data receptor, the unique machine-distinguishable identifier being configured to be distinguishable by a processing device; a memory that includes one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processing devices, perform a process comprising; receiving a content signal indicative of a handwriting accepted by the at least one region; receiving a label signal indicative of the machine-distinguishable identifier of the at least one region; and in response to the signal indicative of the machine-distinguishable identifier of the at least one region, distributing a representation of the handwriting accepted by the at least one region to a data receptor.

13. A method, comprising:
-
receiving a content signal indicative of information input to a region configured to receive the information; receiving a label signal indicative of a machine-distinguishable identifier keyed to a data recipient, the machine-distinguishable identifier being configured to be electronically distinguished by a processing device; and in response to the label signal, distributing to the data recipient a representation of the information received by the region.

14. An article of manufacture comprising:
-
a writing surface having at least one region configured to accept an information, the region including a machine-distinguishable identifier keyed to a data receptor; and a detector operable to electronically distinguish the machine-distinguishable identifier and to distribute a representation of the information accepted by the at least one region to the data receptor that is keyed to the machine-distinguishable identifier.
-
-
15. A method comprising:
-
delineating at least one information acceptance region of a surface; accepting a machine-distinguishable identifier keyed to a data recipient via the information acceptance region; and accepting information via the information acceptance region, the information being associated with the machine-distinguishable identifier; and providing at least one of the information or a representation of the information to the data recipient keyed to the machine-distinguishable identifier. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
