Description

Detailed Description of the Invention 3. Detailed Description of the Invention [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a handwritten character education system. In particular, it relates to a handwriting education system for teaching handwriting.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, in mechanized handwritten character education, the stroke order has been displayed one by one and the writing method has been taught by making the strokes resemble each other. Therefore, it was difficult for the trainee to recognize the shape of the entire character, and errors in the direction of writing were difficult for both the educator and the trainee to recognize.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present invention has been made in view of this point, and is an educational method for handwriting in which the handwriting method is taught through the action of changing the color produced depending on the writing method and trying to produce the same color. provide the system.

[Means for Solving the Problem] As a means for solving this problem, the handwritten character education system of the present invention includes a display means for displaying in different colors depending on the writing method.

[Operation] In this configuration, the correct writing method of characters and the writing method of handwritten characters are displayed in a state where they can be compared by color.

[Example] FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a handwritten character education system according to an example.

This system uses a digitizer 6 as the manual part of handwritten characters.
and a stylus 7, a color display device 5 such as a liquid crystal display as an output part, a CPU 1 for controlling these, a ROM 2 for storing programs, and a RAM 3 for auxiliary storage.
A model character storage unit 4 that stores model handwritten characters
It consists of When the system is used as a handwritten character recognition device, recognition is performed using the stroke order, number of corners, number of straight lines, number of curved lines, and the positional relationship of the characters written by the user. Outputs the characters input with the stylus 7 to the display device according to the recognition results.
In many cases, such controls are in place. On the other hand, when the system is used as a handwritten character education system, on the other hand, a sample character shape is outputted to the color display device 5 after changing its color depending on the writing method, and then it is copied using the digitizer 6 and stylus 7. This is a control procedure. At that time, by displaying the input characters in the same color as the model characters using the calligraphy method, the input characters can be easily compared with the model characters, and you can simply try to make the characters the same color. You can teach writing methods.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of colors that output different colors depending on the writing direction, and in this example, the colors are divided into 12 directions and 12 colors.

First, the kanji to be taught is displayed through an output subrune whose color changes depending on the writing direction, and then the person to be taught uses a pointing device such as a digitizer 6 to manually write the kanji. At that time, the human action is monitored through an output subrune whose color changes depending on the writing direction.

By performing such movements, the student can be taught the direction of writing naturally by simply trying to produce the same figure with the same color as the multicolored figure appearing on the screen.

FIGS. 3(a) and 3(b) are control flowcharts of the handwritten character education system of the embodiment.

First, in step S30, characters to practice are selected.

This selection may be made by the person to be educated or by the educator. This selection may be input from a keyboard (not shown) or manually from the color display device 5. When the selection is completed, step S3
At step 1, data including the writing order and writing direction of characters is read from the model character storage section 4. In step S32, as shown in FIG.
In the subroutine shown in b), the color is changed as shown in FIG. 2 depending on the writing direction and displayed on the color display device 5. The student moves to step S using the characters displayed in step S32 as a model.
At 33, handwritten characters are input using the digitizer 6. In step S34, in the subroutine shown in FIG. 3(b) again, the handwritten characters handwritten in step S33 are divided into 12 colors as shown in FIG. 2 according to the writing direction and displayed on the color display device 5. The color of the model characters displayed in step S35 is compared with the color of the input handwritten characters to check whether they are the same, and if they are not the same, practice again and repeat steps S33 to S35 until they are the same. .

The subroutine shown in FIG. 3(b) is a subroutine in which, in step S40, the writing is divided into the 12 colors shown in FIG. 2 according to the direction of the vector of the writing direction and displayed on the color display device 5.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of colors that output different colors depending on the order of writing, and in this example, colors are divided into 12 colors and assigned to the order of writing.

First, the kanji to be taught is displayed through an output subrune whose color changes depending on the order in which it is written, and then the person to be educated is made to manually write the kanji for sagi using a pointing device such as the digitizer 6. At that time, the input operation is monitored through the output subrune, which changes color depending on the writing order.

By having the student perform such movements, the student can be taught the writing order naturally by simply trying to produce the same figure with the same color as the multicolored figure appearing on the screen.

FIGS. 5(a) and 5(b) are control flowcharts of the handwritten character education system of the embodiment.

First, in step S50, characters to be practiced are selected.

This selection may be made by the person to be educated or by the educator. This selection may be made manually from a keyboard (not shown) or from the color display device 5. When the selection is completed, step S5
At step 1, data including the writing order and writing direction of the characters is read from the model character storage section 4. In step S52, as shown in FIG.
In the subroutine shown in b), the colors are changed as shown in FIG. 4 depending on the writing order and displayed on the color display device 5. The student moves to step S using the characters displayed in step S52 as a model.
At step 53, the handwritten characters are manually written using the digitizer 6. In step S54, in the subroutine shown in FIG. 3(b) again, the handwritten characters manually written in step S53 are divided into 12 colors and displayed on the color display device 5 as shown in FIG. Compare the color of the model character displayed in step S55 with the color of the handwritten character to check whether they are the same, and if they are not the same, practice again and repeat steps 353 to 55 until they are the same. .

The subroutine shown in FIG. 5(b) is a subroutine in which, in step S60, the writing order is divided into the 12 colors shown in FIG. 4 and displayed on the color display device 5.

be.

Since the color display is intuitively understandable, it is expected to have a great effect on the education of young children.

Since this apparatus is composed of multicolor output devices and pointing devices, it is possible to easily configure this system with a normal computer system.

Note that in this example, the writing direction and writing order were explained separately, but
The writing direction and writing order may be combined and color-coded.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a handwriting education system in which the handwriting method is taught by changing the color produced depending on the writing method and by the action of trying to produce the same color.
