  • Abstract
    Digitizing tablets provides a faster and accurate method to input handwritten characters to the computer.

In this paper we present a method for online recognition of single stroke handwritten Urdu characters. Novel features have been proposed to ease classification. Digitizing tablet has been used to obtain the handwriting online.
