'''Handwriting recognition''' (or '''HWR''') is the ability of a [[computer]] to receive and interpret intelligible handwritten input from sources such as paper documents, [[Photograph|photographs]], touch-screens and other devices.

== Description ==

The image of the written text may be sensed "off line" from a piece of paper by optical scanning (optical character recognition) or intelligent word recognition.

Alternatively, the movements of the pen tip may be sensed "on line", for example by a pen-based computer screen surface, a generally easier task as there are more clues available.

Handwriting recognition principally entails [[optical character recognition]]. However, a complete handwriting recognition system also handles formatting, performs correct segmentation into characters and finds the most plausible words.
