SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SHAPE RECOGNITION AND CORRECTION

摘要

The system and method for shape recognition and correction allows a user to hand draw a shape on a computer and replace the hand drawn shape with a corrected geometrical shape. A database of regular geometrical shapes is stored in a database in computer readable memory. A manually drawn geometric shape is stored as a first geometric data set in the memory and is displayed on a display. A best fit geometrical shape is then selected from the database, the best fit geometrical shape having contours approximately matching the contours of the manual geometric shape. The best fit geometrical shape is scaled to have dimensions approximately matching dimensions of the manual geometric shape. The best fit geometrical to shape is stored as a second geometric data set and the first geometric data set is replaced thereby. The best fit geometric shape is then displayed to the user on the display.
