Note-taking applications where users want to capture handwritten notes and have them translated into text.

# Suggested use cases for the Handwriting Recognition API

In contrast to 'off-line' procedures such as Optical Character Recognition (OCR), where only the end product is known, on-line algorithms can provide a higher level of accuracy due to additional signals like the temporal sequence and pressure of individual ink strokes. This means that the handwritten input is recognized while the user is drawing it by capturing and analyzing the single strokes. This API implements so-called 'on-line' or near real-time recognition. The conversion takes place directly on the user's device, works even in offline mode, all without adding any third-party libraries or services.
