The document describes a Smart Note Taker (SNT) device that allows users to write notes in the air that are then stored and can be displayed on a PC. The SNT uses sensors and a processor to recognize handwriting in 22 languages and store notes in memory to share on a computer. It aims to improve on earlier note taking devices by making notes editable, sharable, and facilitating paperless note taking. The SNT works by sensors detecting pen displacement, comparing the writing to letters in a database, and storing recognized letters in memory to upload and edit on a PC.
