Abstract
In recent years, touch-type mobile device such as a tablet and a smartphone has been popularized, but some people do not familiar with them, other people do not use them efficiently, we focus on writing movement and propose "New Generation Digital Pen" that is able to access the Internet more easily and flexibly. In software side, We had constructed a system that associates handwriting with airpen(Pentel Co.) with digital operations. However, this system was limits to send a e-mail and the command judgement was instability. So, we implemented tweet command and improved this judgement algorithm. In hardware side, We developed new pen device. A refill has been found to be strained depending on the direction of pen point movement. By analyzing the value of the strain gauges attached on a refill, it estimates the handwriting.
