Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for improving the latency for display of ink during user creation of ink content with an object, such as a stylus, mouse, finger (or other touch input), or other drawing device. In order to reduce or minimize the time for display of ink content created by a user, aspects of the technology described herein generate predictive wet ink that can be displayed with actual wet ink. The predictive wet ink is calculated by extending an active ink segment a predictive distance. The predictive distance is intended to be a distance between a termination ink point for an active wet ink segment and a tip of the writing object. In one aspect, the predictive distance is calculated by determining the current latency period on a touch device and the velocity of the writing object.

Claim (Index 14):
A computer-storage media having computer executable instructions embodied thereon that when executed by a computing device having a touchscreen causes the computing device to perform a method for rendering predictive wet ink on the touchscreen, comprising:\n receiving contact points on a path made by an object across a surface of the touchscreen; computing an active cubic Bezier approximation using the contact points as an input, the active cubic Bezier approximation having a starting contact point and a termination contact point; determining a wet ink latency period for the touchscreen, wherein the wet ink latency period is at least a latency between the object contacting a touchscreen at a point and wet ink representing that point appearing on the touchscreen; determining a predictive distance the object should travel during the wet ink latency period; computing a new cubic Bezier approximation that extends the predictive distance from the termination contact point; and rendering a wet ink based on the active cubic Bezier approximation together with a predictive wet ink based on the new cubic Bezier approximation.
