Latest Patents

McAnearney is associated with 1 patent, titled “Methods for Identifying Devolved Sequences of Handwriting Motions for Generating Target Inputs Using a Co-Adapted Input-Detection Model, and Devices and Systems Therefor.”

The patent describes a method that uses sensors in a wearable device to collect data as a user attempts handwriting motions associated with target inputs. Based on the motion data and the intended inputs, the system identifies a different, shorter sequence of motions that could be suggested to the user. It then presents a representation of that sequence, potentially reducing the motions needed to enter a target input.
