An apparatus and method for increasing the rate of recognition of spatial writing, the apparatus including an inertia sensor module, a storage module, an operation module, and a recognition module. The inertia sensor module measures acceleration of a spatial writing device. The storage module stores predetermined operation information and parameters for tracing the motion trajectory of spatial writing, and pattern information about the motion trajectory. The operation module calculates a velocity of the spatial writing from the acceleration measured using the operation information and parameters, corrects the calculated motion velocity by limiting positional relationships between predetermined points which correspond to the motion trajectory of the spatial writing, and traces the motion trajectory using the corrected motion velocity. The recognition module recognizes the spatial writing by comparing the motion trajectory of spatial writing traced by the operation module with pattern information about motion trajectories stored in the storage module.

An apparatus for correcting an inertial sensor includes an inertial sensor module, a storage module and a control module. The inertial sensor module measures angular velocity and acceleration of an object moving in a space. The storage module stores predetermined operation information and parameters required to correct the measured acceleration. The control module calculates motion velocity from the measured acceleration using the operation information and the parameters, and corrects the calculated motion velocity for each interval between zero-angular-velocity time instances at which angular velocity about an arbitrary axis is '0'.

An input device includes a sensor configured to generate a signal related to a change in inertia around at least one axis of the input device in response to a contacting of the input device. A processor is configured to receive the signal from the sensor to determine whether the change in inertia around the at least one axis of the input device corresponds to a tapping of the input device. The processor is further configured to identify a contacted region of the input device based on a direction of the change in inertia around the at least one axis of the input device when the change in inertia corresponds to a tapping of the input device
