Hi AnnaGrace,<br>
<br>
Yes, this will be possible some day. This is called optical
character recognition or optical glyph recognition.<br>
<br>
There have been several projects in the past aimed at SignWriting
recognition and there is currently one on GitHub.<br>

Hey you techs and programmers,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please see the attached video clip of the "Scribble"
feature in Apple devices. They're doing it also for Chinese
characters. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Could this be possible for SignWriting? (Also for
DanceWriting, MimeWriting, Sutton Movement Writing for that
matter?)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
<div>AnnaGrace</div>

Steve,<br>
<br>
Thanks for the columns, it will be a big help to all
programmers <br>
new to SignWriting. I remember programming of the columns in
VB.Net for <br>
SignWriter Studio, it was quite a challenging piece of code to
write at <br>
the time. This is help future projects be able to focus more
on the <br>
features and less on these low level issues that can sometimes
be <br>
challenging to write.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
