Continuous marking menus for learning cursive pen-based gestures

Published: 13 February 2011 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper, we present a new type of Marking menus. Continuous Marking Menus are specifically dedicated to pen-based interfaces, and designed to define a set of cursive, realistic handwritten gestures. In menu mode, they offer a continuous visual feedback and fluent exploration of menu hierarchy, inviting the user to execute cursive gestures for invoking the desired commands. In marking mode, a specific gesture recognition method is proposed and proved to be very efficient for recognizing cursive gestures.
