In this paper, we demonstrate IllumiPaper: A system that combines new forms of paper-integrated feedback with digital pen-and-paper solutions to address the lack of dynamic visual feedback in digital pen applications. We aim to visually support typical paper-related tasks by providing active visual feedback that is directly integrated into standard paper and thereby eliminate the problem of visual inconsistencies between physically written content and associated digital information. In contrast to our prior work, we present an extended version of our augmented paper sheets that are entirely printed with emerging conductive and electroluminescent thin-film technologies. These advanced fabrication methods enable paper illuminations with a high degree of quality and integration. As a major contribution, we want to demonstrate the feasibility of IllumiPapers systematic feedback repertoire for real-world applications and share hands-on experiences with the IllumiPaper research platform consisting of a paper-controller, digital pen and printed illuminated, digitally controlled papers with the German HCI community.

Smart Study is an educational platform allowing learners to continue using pen and paper for learning purposes. The platform allow children to solve exercises in the classical way, using a pen and paper. Afterwards, the handwritten solutions are digitalized, automatically corrected and animated feedback is provided by means of a tablet. By using pen and paper, readwrite learners can still use their preferred learning method while for all other learners it allows them to practice handwriting. The use of a tablet for feedback and for providing information makes it a lightweight and mobile platform, easy to use by children. The platform was evaluated with 15 children age 10 to 11. This evaluation showed that the children were more motivated than usual and enjoyed working with the platform. Also their teachers were enthusiastic but questioned the cost for its use in a classroom environment. However, the platform could also perform well in a remediation situation, home or hospital environment.

Scanning technology for handwritten data has reached its momentum after the invention of the digital pen. Research work focused on the development of HMI applications that facilitate digital ink data manipulation. In a research context, digital pen and paper technology is useful for collecting experimental data in various fields. Our goal is to provide support for the processing and the visualization of time stamped data collected by a digital pen in two cases of use : on one hand, in the educational science field, and especially for assessment tests and, on another hand, for taking observation notes. Our approach is to study these cases of use through four concrete experiences and to develop, with the participation of the user, prototypes for a system that aid to process and to visualize collected data. In order to abstract a general model of such a system, we analyzed prototypes user interfaces in terms of functionality, visualization and interaction. Our model describes the visualization process by implementing three types of user tasks namely analytic tasks, handling tasks and interaction tasks., La technologie de numérisation des données manuscrites a atteint son essor après l’invention du stylo numérique. Les recherches se sont concentrées alors sur le développement des applications IHM qui facilitent la manipulation des données encre numérique. Dans un contexte de recherche, la technologie du papier et stylo numériques s’avère utile pour la collecte des données expérimentales dans différents domaines. Notre but est de fournir une aide pour le traitement et la visualisation des données, notamment les données temps, recueillies avec un stylo numérique dans deux cas d’usage en sciences de l’éducation à savoir les tests d’évaluation et la prise de notes d’observation. Notre démarche consiste à étudier ces cas d’usage en terme de besoin dans quatre expériences concrètes et à développer, en participation avec l’utilisateur, des prototypes de système de traitement et de visualisation des données. Dans le but de concevoir un modèle général de tel système, nous avons analysé l’interface d’utilisation des prototypes en terme de fonctionnalités, de visualisation et d’interaction. Notre modèle décrit le processus de visualisation en mettant en œuvre trois types de tâches d’utilisateur à savoir les tâches d’analyses, les tâches de manipulation et les tâches d’interaction.

With the emergence of digital pen and paper technologies, we have witnessed an increasing number of enhanced paper-digital notetaking solutions. However, the natural notetaking process includes a variety of individual work practices that complicate the automatic processing of paper notes and require user intervention for the classification of digital ink data. We present an extensible digital ink processing framework that simplifies the classification of digital ink data in natural notetaking applications. Our solution deals with the manual as well as automatic ink data segmentation and classification based on Delaunay triangulation and a strongest link algorithm. We further highlight how our solution can be extended with new digital ink classifiers and describe a paper-digital reminder application that has been realised based on the presented digital ink processing framework.

In an educational context, the use of new technologies can influence and change teaching practices. Digital pen and paper, as man-machine interface, appears familiar and do not require any specific training. Analyzing logs recorded by this technology, especially time, seems interesting in order to provide new indicators for evaluation or observation. As far as we know, time stamped logs recorded by digital pen is barely studied in an educational context by researchers. We explore the use of digital pen and paper solution for paper assessment tests. Especially, we investigate the interest of time stamped answers, considered as traces of the answering process to an assessment test. As the raw data collected with the digital pen and paper have to be transformed to compute indicators, we have designed and developed a platform named SEGELL. It provides graphical representations, which helps users, as teachers or researchers in education, to analyze students' production. The paper presents an experiment where we used digital pen and paper for the administration of assessment tests. We detail the analysis of collected data we conducted with the support of our platform. The paper enlightens the type of information we get on students' behavior during the test.
