2.  Introduction
 Working
 Technical specifications
 Applications
 Advantages
 Disadvantages
 Conclusion

3.  Lyndsay Williams of Microsoft Research's Cambridge
UK lab is the inventor of the Smart quill.
 A pen that can remember the words that it is used to
write, and then transform them into computer text.
 Smart Quill contains sensors that record data by the
movement of the pen, irrespective of the platform used.

4.  Smart Quill is slightly larger than an ordinary pen.
 The user trains the pen to recognize a particular
handwriting style.
 The really clever bit of technology is its ability to read
handwriting not only on paper but on any flat surface.
 The pen is filled with a cartridge

5.  Display Technology
 Handwriting recognition & signature specification
 Communication with other devices
 Memory
 Power

6.  Cyber Display is a ¼ inch diagonal LCD that uses circuitry
built on a silicon wafer.
 There is a small 3 or 4 line screen to read the information
stored in the pen.

7.  Here the user can train the pen to recognize the particular hand
writing.
 Smart Quill works by measuring the pen movement &
matching them to the movements that produce letters & words
programmed into memory.
 Password can be recognized by using the signature.

9.  This technology uses a device called Accelerometer which is
used for measuring motion.
 A tiny accelerometer in a pen used to detect the loops, arcs of
our handwriting, and transmits into a small microprocessor
that would make sense of its as text.
 Invisible writing in air is achieved through this unique
technology called accelerometers that monitors hand
movements.

10.  The data stored in the memory is uploaded to the personal
computer when it is placed into a docking station called
as “inkwell”.
 Future models could receive e-mails and pager messages
via a wireless messaging system .

11.  It has 4MB EEPROM(Electrically Erasable Programmable
Read Only Memory) Memory.
 At a time, we can store 10pages of notes can be stored locally
on the pen.

12.  Smart Quill works on AAA(Antiaircraft Artillery Battery)
 It can continuously works 12hrs with a single AAA
battery.
 The pen has automatic off system.

13.  Replace keyboard with smart quill
 Input to other devices
 Voice recording
 It also provides handheld computer applications such as
digital diary, contacts, etc.

14.  Spatial sensing system
 Security
 Hand writing recognition
 Signature recognition
 Power saving
 It also acts like a mouse
 It supports wireless communication system.

15.  Bigger in size, compared to a normal pen.
 Memory damage
 Modifying of mistakes
 Accelerometer damage

16.  The estimated cost of this pen is around $200.
 Smart quill is convenient to use.
 Keyboards becomes so tiny, we require needle-like
fingers to operate the pen.
