MyScript Equation

MyScript Equation is a Software Development Kit (SDK) designed for building applications that enable the recognition of equations and mathematical formulas created with digital ink.

MyScript Equation includes a library of more than 150 symbols and characters and completes Vision Objects’ handwriting and shape recognition solutions SDKs.

 

Ideal for math solving application design

Everyone who needs to note down equations and mathematical formulas naturally uses handwriting. The tricky part comes up once you need to capture this formula in a digital format using the clumsy keyboard. MyScript Equation allows the simple conversion of handwritten mathematical expressions to a neat and digital format, therefore opening new possibilities in the educational area. Indeed, it is now possible to build interactive mathematical exercises, write complex equations and send them to math software packages or simply record them in your favorite note taking-application using a digital pen, touch screen device or an interactive whiteboard.


How does it work?

MyScript Equation engine analyzes the spatial relationship between the various parts of the equation and does not take into account the sequence in which these were written, this ensures optimal recognition accuracy and best user experience when comparing to alternative offers that require strict sequencing of the equation. The result can be mapped to build standard LaTeX or MathML strings for interacting with other software solutions.

  

A complete set of mathematical elements and more

MyScript Equation is capable of recognizing the various elements that can be used to write an equation:

 

MyScript Equation also recognizes mathematical or scientific text-based terms such as:

 

 

 

Recognition of any type of equation

The SDK integrates equation grammar in order to deliver the awaited structure result.

 

What makes MyScript Equation different?

  • Cursive writing: supports natural handwriting, not limited to handprinted handwriting.
  • Full set of characters: includes a complete library of mathematical characters and expressions, measurement units, chemical symbols.
  • Time order independent: focuses on spatial layout of mathematical terms, ensuring better intuitivity and accuracy.
  • Multi-device: designed for building applications running on any digital device (Internet tablets, digital pens or Interactive Whiteboards).
