Patent ID: 8830212

Claim:
A method of digital recording of hand-painted, hand-drawn and handwritten information and navigating a cursor on the display defined by a hand and/or fingers movement, said method comprising: providing a computing device with a display; providing an input device comprising: an interchangeable end-point; a single force vector sensor integrated on a semiconductor substrate chip, wherein the semiconductor substrate chip is included in the interchangeable end-point; providing any working surface suitable for moving the input device comprising the interchangeable end-point across the working surface in a process of painting, drawing, writing or cursor navigating; moving the input device with a hand and/or fingers such that the interchangeable end-point is contacting the working surface during the hand and/or fingers movement relative to the surface while recording with the single force vector sensor the change of a vector of force applied to the sensor by the end-point; digitizing this information and processing the data related to the change of the force vector components; providing a description in digital format of how the input device has been pressed to the working surface based at least in part on the force applied by the end-point to the working surface; and providing a description in digital format of how the input device has been moved over the working surface based at least in part on the correlation between the force vector components and corresponding movement vector components.
