Smart Quill is a pen invented by Lyndsey Williams that records handwritten notes and converts them to digital text. It contains sensors and an accelerometer that track the pen's movements as it is used and matches the handwriting to programmed letters. Notes can be transferred to a computer for editing or storing. The pen has a small screen, memory to store pages of notes, and runs on batteries, providing a handheld notetaking device.

3. INTRODUCTION
 Smart Quill was Invented By Lyndsey Williams of
Cambridge University.
 Smart Quill is a pen which remembers the words that
writes and then transfer them into computer text.
 Smart quill contains sensors that records movement by
using the earth’s gravity system

4. WORKING
 User just need to push a button and start writing what he wants and the
accelerometer are used to sense the movements of the pen.
 It measures the pen’s movement and match it with programmed letters in its
memory.
 Reads handwriting not only on paper but also in air – horizontal and
vertical.
 There is also a small three-line screen to read the information stored in the
pen
 The Two important techniques used here are:
Accelerometer Technology.
Handwriting Recognition Software.

5. WORKING
 Accelerometer is the device used for measuring motion
here we use it to measure the motion of the pen and transmit this
information to a small microprocessor.
 Handwriting Recognition Software
Used to recognize handwriting of the user.

6. FEATURES
 Display screen:
 3 line display screen with tilt scroll.
 Memory:
 It uses 4 Mb EEPROM.
 Saves up to 10 pages of notes.
 Power:
 Works on AAA battery.
 Continuously work 25 hours with single battery.

7. APPLICATIONS
 Replace keyboard with Smart quill
 Input to other devices
 Used for receiving pager & E-mail message
 provides handheld computer applications such as digital diary, contacts,
calculators etc.
 Prevents unnecessary typing to save time.
 Support’s Speech Recognition system

8. CONCLUSION
 Smart quill is convenient for use.
 It could become a general day-to-day life pen.
 This helps people get rid of typing on computers.
