Abstract :
An online character recognition system based on a comparison of chain codes by a dedicated processor is described. The processing is independent of the size of the characters and the speed of the writing. There is no constraint on the writing, and the system can recognize any character defined by the user. Real-time tests on the system show a high accuracy for user-dependent applications
