Detecting Pen-In-Air States from Video: A Proof-of-Concept Toward Complementary Handwriting Analysis

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2606.02342v1 Announce Type: new Dynamic aspects of handwriting are critical for assessing developmental disorders such as dysgraphia and are typically captured using digitizing tablets. However, tablet-based sensing restricts analysis of Pen-Up behavior to a short proximity range above the writing surface, potentially missing high-lift in-air movements. As a proof of concept, we investigate whether top-view video can provide a complementary source of information for inferring pen-contact states without relying on tablet proximity sensing.
