PREFACE:
No lengthy description or video demonstration can adequately provide the understanding required to grasp the utility of UCS. Hands on experience is essential. One does not require a computer or even paper to practice UCS. A stylus on a solid surface will do. Writing the most critical "primary" strokes in a STATIONARY manner using real words will do more than any passive decription could ever accomplish. Looking at the strokes while writing them is not recommended... just feel them. (Note: the SPACE stroke is a backward-directed horizontal line. The spacer should be thought of as a gesture that pushes or sweeps the completed pile of symbols (a word) out of the way and to the left.) |

INTRODUCTION: To understand UCS, one must first know the reasoning behind it. Unraveling the system was quite complex and not all is discussed here but, the final result is a simple, electronic writing system that maintains compatibily with western cursive. UCS is geared toward maximizing the efficiency and neatness of handwriting. It uses computer recognition power as a form of leverage. UCS minimizes the potential of errors occuring from both the writers' end and symbol recognition end. It provides a competitive option to keyboards and a means to take notes faster than pen on paper. The computer offers a new writing method that would be beyond the comprehension of a pre-computer era writers' imagination. It allows increased simplicity, writing speed, neatness and greatly reduces the space required to write. This new method is "stationary" or "in place" writing. Stationary writing, however, is not just writing old world letters and numbers one over the other. It is a new form of writing which requires its own style and has special characteristics. Stationary UCS is a communication tool used to instruct the computer. Through smooth pen movements it "tells" the software to output certain characters, matriculate or obey simple gesture commands. The trick is to blend the style and characteristics of the new with the old, and come up with a faster, easier-to-write system that still maintains compatibility with familiar cursive and numbers so it is still writable for a "normal" individual. The UCS stroke system is mathematical in nature and not alterable, much like the musical scale. Some rules (described below) were, therefore, necessary in order to establish with certainty, which primary UCS stroke pattern should ultimately represent what letter. Rule(1) - The most often used UCS strokes are to be the most simple. (Vowels the most simple, double consonants moderately simple and single consonants the least simple OR those strokes most difficult to quickly write twice in a row. Most punctuation and special characters are less used and, thereore, most complex. Number strokes are also least complex and identical to 10 of the 26 UCS primaries. Numbers are distinguished singley, by a simple "change last to a number" gesture or multiplely, by an "all are numbers ahead" gesture.) Rule(2) - To maintain consistancy, all UCS vowel strokes must start at the top. Rule(3) - Compatibility trumps efficiency. If there is a choice between efficiency and compatibility, compatibility wins. Rule(4) - Writing coherency must be maintained. If a stroke does not flow well with one or more other strokes, even though cursive compatibility is acceptable and it correctly fits within the simplicity hierarchy, it still cannot represent the targeted letter. Some UCS stroke combinations are like tongue twisters and difficult to quicky write together. These problem combinations are handled by representing letters that rarely or never appear side by side in the English language such as ''q'' and ''k'' or ''j'' and ''n''.
Once the rules were worked out, it was a matter of phyically testing every possible compatible combination of the 26 primary universal strokes. (About 1000 different stroke arrangements) The final UCS lowercase arrangement is the culmination of that long testing process. So ... If such questions are asked, for example: Why isn't the 's' shaped UCS stroke used for the letter ''s''? OR Why isn't the 'j' shaped stroke used for the letter ''j''? OR Why is the 'c' shape used to represent the letter ''a'', you, the reader will understand that a very precise reasoning process went into the positioning of each UCS stroke. You will be able to comprehend that: - When a ''g'' is quickly written, it DOES look like an ''s'' AND - The ''j'', being a single consonant, cannot possibly be allowed to be more simple than the much often used ''s'' and in fact, the back side of a cursive ''s'' DOES look like a ''j'' AND - The ''a'', being a vowel, must be less complex than the consonant ''c'' and actually, the top starting curvature of the cursive ''a'' is identical to the ''c''. The examples above are just three branches of the large UCS decision making tree. The UCS stroke patterns are not only simple for the sake of increasing writing speed but their geometrical shapes allow the establishment of precise, non-fuzzy boundaries between all "neighboring" strokes, which maximizes the recognition capabilities of the UCS software. When both the stroke and recognition systems are combined, a new, electronic writing system is created that is practical, fast, low-error, quick to master and extremely compact. It will outperform in speed and convenience, old-style paper writing, Graffiti and most sub-standard keyboards. |

"The objective in all areas of the Universal Computer Script system is to reduce the risk of producing errors. Any stroke which impedes that process, whether it be from English or Sanskrit, must either be eliminated or absorbed within the range of a more definitive character." |

Comparison with Graffiti and Overview.Graffitis 1 & 2 are slight variations of either old English lower or uppercase print. Each, for the most part, are still "true type" symbols, as are standard letters, which are intended for direct viewing. True letters are intrinsically complex and recogniton unfriendly. In addition to Graffiti's relative complexity, it can not differentiate letters from numbers and requires the use of specialized writing areas.Universal Computer Script or UCS was created for writing on a virtual medium (e.g. a digitizer). It offers minimal complexity, is still compatable with English and does not have or need specialized writing areas to separate numbers from letters. A relatively long interval is required to write each true letter. If a writer and a typist is competing head-to-head in order to complete an identical paragraph, as the number of words completed increases, the more ahead the typist will be. To shrink this increasing gap using high technology, it makes the most sense to use shorter "virtual" letter representations when writing on a digitizer. The input is substantially quicker than print or cursive and the likelyhood of both user and software errors is minimized. If the "virtual" symbols are carefully organized to still "feel" like English, one can then quickly learn to fluently write the shorter symbols and use the computing power of the computer to one's advantage. The simpler versions of a letter can almost instantaneously be translated and then substituted on screen with the more complex, standard letter. The fast typist will no longer be so far ahead and the experienced UCS writer will now be running neck and neck with the average typist (30-40 wpm). Primary UCS was born out of a simple series of geometric progressions consisting entirely of smooth, short, stroke patterns. This type of computer-definitive script is not meant to be viewed directly, but to be felt directly. UCS is an English "tactile" language. It requires a UCS-specific recognition program, built for the accurate recgnition of quick and sloppily written strokes. It is ideal for small computers. Once the UCS script progression formula was established, the stroke patterns were then organized to fit within the most suitable Western script system which turned out to be cursive. UCS creates the illusion of writing cursive without using all of its curves and loops. To put it simply, it tricks ones hand into believing it is writing cursive when in fact it is only writing its essence. Because UCS is "tuned" for cursive, the brain will automatically compensate for any letter simplifications or alterations and it too will accept what is being written as plain old English. UCS is designed to communicate all necessary information directly to the computer which eliminates any special writing area requirements for different symbol types. The end result of the UCS design is a compact, fast, easy to write, perfectly neat writing system that, with practice, will outperform pen on paper and the small keyboard.
ContentsWELCOMEUCS DESCRIPTION THE UCS PREMISE ENGLISH COMPATIBILITY SURPASSING PAPER WRITING WRITING PRACTICALITY WRITING COHERENCY UCS STROKES THE COMPLETION EFFECT RECOGNITION / STROKE INTEGRATION THE FUTURE OF COMPUTER LEVERAGED WRITING. Welcome___ The new text input and symbol recognition system, Universal Computer Script, (patent pending) is not currently restricted to any particular operating system. UCS is designed to increase "recognition" writing speed to its maximum potential while reducing the likelyhood of producing errors to its lowest potential. Its description is provided below. ___ UCS comprises a limited set of specialized stroke patterns which aid recognition and increase input speed. It was developed over a number of years. These patterns were eventually arranged through a process of trial and error for English. Each pattern was extensively tested and strategically positioned so that it and all of the remaining stroke patterns were in a 100% cursive/print compatible position. The strokes, when written at high speed, feel similar to that of cursive and the writing flow from one stroke to the other is smooth and English-coherent. The significant differences between UCS and cursive are UCS's simplicity, which translates into greater writing speed, and its stationary characteristic which allows UCS to be physically written within an extremely small area on the computer screen. This web page will explain: ___The primary purpose of UCS is to provide a new, English-compatible system of writing which is more appropriate, more efficient and more logical for use with handheld computers than Graffiti, small keyboards or the writing systems used in the past for paper. The UCS system of stroke patterns is translated into standard letters, numbers, punctuation and gestures using a specialized stroke recognition program. (patent pending)
UCS is designed to be written "in place" (stationary writing) and to outperform:
___The UCS system is based on a very limited number of simple, smooth, flowing, stroke patterns which follow several distinct geometrical progressions. The concept is similar to notes on the musical scale. Some of the patterns can, if written in certain configurations, coincidently match English letters and a few Graffiti-like symbols, but most do not exactly match either. Years were required to test and understand how this new system could be made compatible with English. The term English compatibity means that the ingrained writing patterns of those who have been brought up using cursive and print are not violated. The hand will willingly write each UCS stroke and the brain will accept what is written as the appropriate English letter. UCS has advantages over longhand. It is more simple, faster to write, easier, neater, requires less precision and uses much less space. It is the smoothness of the universal stroke patterns, their geometry of progression and their ultimate organization which provides low error, precise recognition and ease of writing. UCS, however, can only be comprehended by physically writing it. No written explanation is sufficient. ___ Although Universal Computer Script was created to directly compete with graphic note-taking and the small keyboard, that goal has not been technically feasible given the devices on the market prior to 2009. Slower-than-blazing CPU speed and borderline digitizer quality limits the input speed and response time of "recognition" writing which disrupts ones natural timing. However, with the mid-2009 introduction of the Snapdragon, 1.3 Ghz chipset, processing speed will finally be within the correct range to provide hesitation-free, writing and note-taking. (To date, the Palm OS, Sony Clie` TH55 has been the handheld that comes closest to note-taking quality recognition results for UCS.) With the advent of the new generation of processors, UCS will soon become a powerful, convenient and pleasant-to-learn text input tool. When it is experimented with for only a short time, Universal Computer Script's English compatibility and unique potential to give handhelds the capability to outperform ink-on-paper writing and the mini keyboard will be understood. (Contents)
___The symbol systems used today and in the past were created to be pressed, chiseled or written and then viewed on the mediums of mud tablets, stone or paper. It was naturally, by visual means that the shapes of all symbols were determined. The symbol one writes, is the symbol one sees and all characters were necessarily different looking. It will be shown, however, that this is not, nor should it be the case for the new medium of the digitized computer screen or tablet. ___The key feature of an intermediary, digital writing system is that it does not require direct readability, only direct writability. UCS is a true, intermediary symbol system. It can be difficult to decipher on paper if written longhand, but visual differentiation of symbols by the writer is not important for "recognition" writing. Only the particular path which a stroke takes in real time is relevant, and it is the software's purpose to analyzes that stroke path. Low readability translates into lower precision required to write a specific symbol and still have it identified correctly. To promote imprecision, UCS strokes follow a few simple geometric rules. A specially designed recognition program, then uses those rules to determine stroke identity. This new recognition method establishes tight, mathematically definable boundaries for each symbol. (Contents)
___A special character set and recognition program may be interesting in theory but are of little value if an average individual cannot quickly pick up and master the system. Language compatability is of critical importance. The underlying relationship between the new, computer-interpreted strokes and Old World letters must be strictly maintained. Only 26, very specific stroke patterns exist which fit within the UCS "primary" system and they must be arranged for lowercase English. To provide the necessary 100% cross-compatability, every conceivable arrangement was tested to determine how to best position each stroke so not one would "feel" uncomfortable or out of place for an English writer. Even though UCS is a "stationary" writing system it can be organized to simulate the "feel" of left-to-right cursive. (More on how this is achieved in the "Completion Effect" section.) UCS is very different "looking" than standard print or cursive, but it is not the appearance that counts in stationary writing. It is the "feel" and that is why UCS works. UCS captures essence. It is an evolutionary step beyond cursive. The faster one writes, the more similar to cursive it feels. (Contents) Cursive: Standard English sentence written longhand from left-to-right.  UCS: "Stationary" input indicating that all UCS strokes are written one over the other. (Not legible as on paper.)  UCS: Below is the appearance of UCS IF it were written from left to right on paper. (It is difficult to read without the aid of software, but is 100% cursive compatible, faster and easier to write and has a low potential for producing user and software errors. Read about the "Completion Effect" below and how it is possible that this strange looking script is indeed compatible with cursive.)

___New efficiency possibilities open up when sight is no longer the driving force behind character input. Inline software senses pen/screen intersection points and stroke direction. This non-visual type of analysis allows the use of more simple symbols. If the derivative form of a standard symbol falls within the correct geometry it can then be classified as a definitve UCS character and used to improve writing efficieny. Inline analysis also allows opposites, that would appear indistinguishable on paper. This promotes simplicity and again, helps improve efficieny. Additionally, each inline stroke may be written in the same spot (stationary writing) which adds another degree of efficiency. And finally, one last step can be taken toward maximizing efficiency by introducing a simplicity heirarchy. Whenever it was possible to do so, symbols used more often in English are more simple in Universal Computer Script. As in speech where the spoken vowels are the shortest and the most clipped sounds, the written UCS vowels are the easiest and quickest symbols to write. As each efficiency feature is added, overall efficiency increases and UCS writing efficiency surpasses that of paper writing. (Contents)
___Computer leveraged script practicality requires that the relative number of user mistakes at normal writing speed be minimal and the writing of the new system feels so similar to its standard counterpart that the transition to it is painless. Reducing error requires a symbol system that does not create software confusion between similar symbols and one which allows for poor penmanship. A painless learning transition requires that 100% of the new strokes either match or create the same "feel" as the familiar standard letter. Without complete language compatibility there can be little utility. UCS successfully accomplishes both the problem of practicality and error reduction. The probability of making mistakes is reduced to a minimum and the 100% English compataility issue is resolved. UCS has been thoroughly tested and is targeted directly at the Western European (Latin), phonetic, lowercase alphabet and accompaning numbers and punctuation. (Contents)
___A practical phonetic written language must also be coherent. Coherency is similar to the concept of fonts where each symbol fits within a matching style. Examples of non-coherency, would be the mixing of cursive symbols with print, caps with lower case or left slanting symbols with right slanting symbols. Any system of writng may, in some sense, be learned but its fluid writability is the factor that establishes it as a coherent language. UCS is coherent and 100% English compatit takes into consideration the absolute necessity of (1) matching in feel every USC stroke pattern with an English (Latin) counterpart; (2) creating a smooth, flowing transition between symbols and (3) maintaining a consistant symbol slant. The UCS lowercase set excludes all stroke patterns with odd angles, high complexity or reverse curves and reverse loops. (Contents)
___Universal Computer Script is composed of three stroke types: Primary, secondary and tertiary. The 26 primaries are the only group of simple stroke patterns existing where each stroke flows within a common stationary writing style. The secondaries are single stroked symbols but do not have a common style. The tertiaries are double stroked characters produced by adding a single modifier stroke after writing a primary or a secondary stroke. The primary UCS strokes represent the latin lowercase alphabet and numbers. The secondary strokes and the tertiaries represent gestures, controls, punctuation symbols and a few common non-English, Western symbols. (Contents)
___It can be proved experimentally that when a stroke pattern falls within an appropriate stroke path for a particular symbol, ones brain and hand will both quickly and willingly accept it as the targeted standard symbol even though it, visually, may appear incomplete or unfamiliar. If the stroke is shorter, ones brain will automatitically fill in the missing pieces and it will still feel as though the entire familiar letter has been written. This phenomenon is called "completion". When advantage is taken of the "completion" effect, and the UCS symbols are English aligned, the UCS writing system becomes 100% English coherent. Within a few weeks of practice, an individual who has been brought up within the Western European writing system, will be writing UCS fluently, accurately and with comfort. (Contents)
___The special configuration of UCS stroke patterns combined with its integrated, boundary based recognition program create a computer leveraged script system which allows high writing speed with the highest possible recognition potential. The key to superior recognition at higher writing speeds is in the coordination of the strokes with the recognition program. The UCS stroke formula allows absolute identification of the borderlines which separate neighboring symbols. The boundaries, fit tightly along side one another like pieces in a puzzle. There are no gaps in recognition or overlaps between symbols. The effect is to maximize the range of recognition and eliminate software confusion when attempting to differentiate between two similar symbols. (Contents) |

For those who often find themselves in need of writing or inputting text when away from their laptops, UCS makes the most sense for ultra compacts, smartphones, handhelds, tablets and hybrids. It is specifically designed for the small computer and is substantially faster and neater than natural writing on paper. It can be practiced "dry" without using a pen, paper or a computer. UCS is comprised of a group of simple strokes tested to be the fastest and easiest to write without producing errors. The UCS strokes are integrated into a UCS-specific recognition program that is precise and highly accurate. The UCS strokes have been carefully arranged to create a quick, "stationary" style of writing that still maintains its compatibility with a number of western style cursive languages.

Above are the 26, primary stroke patterns of Universal Computer Script (UCS) and their relationship to cursive. No other serious option exists for a practical, fast, low error and "Western compatible" computer leveraged script system.
Of the Western languages, English, having no accent marks, umlauts etc., is best suited for UCS. It has the fewest number of lowercase symbols (26) which matches the number of smooth primary strokes. This does not exclude other European languages. It only makes them a little slower and less flowing to write. (The additional sets of UCS secondary and tertiary strokes are discussed under the "UCS STROKES" heading in the left column.) The 26 primary UCS patterns, like the musical notes, form a limited universal set and will not change over time.
Although written with a wide degree of variability, each simple pattern fits within one of several stroke progressions which lie along a specific geometrical continuum. (These progressions are described within the published patent application.) You will find several English and Graffiti look alikes, but they are not necessarily used to represent the most obvious letter choice. UCS is based far more on "feel" and overall efficiency than appearance. Also notice that each primary pattern within the continuum encompasses a full "follow through" motion, where the hand flows smoothly from start to finish. (Note that the symbol '7', even though simple, is not a primary UCS stroke ... it is a sharp, partial stroke that requires more control to articulate than a UCS smooth curve, line or switchback.) The objective in all areas of a computer leveraged script system is to reduce the risk of producing errorsde. Any stroke that hinders that process must either be eliminated or absorbed within the range of a more definitive character. The '7' is absorbed within the UCS pattern representing the letter 'J'.
Suggestion: Trace each stroke invisibly using some form of stylus on a solid surface and "think" of its cursive "parent" while writing it. You will discover that both your hand and the writing part of your brain will immediately or soon concur that the familiar letter has been written. Learning UCS is just a matter of practicing where each stroke starts and stops.

The near future possibiliy of ubiquitous electronic writing will be
dependent upon several factors including...
1) digitizer quality
2) cost of the required e-writer/e-readers
3) the willingness to embrace the necessary evolutionary step that must be taken to bring writing into the digital age.
We now possess advanced compact computers, but do not yet possess that most fundamental advancement which would provide the means to use them at their highest potential. For writing, we have continued to maintain a tenacious foothold in the former millenia, believing that the paper writing method used over the centuries is the last and final step in writing, never to change again. It, however, is not the final step. (Society may refuse to budge from the "never to change again" belief system, and the handheld will then remain a limited device.)
In the current millenium, it would be far more advantageous if the bulk of reading, math and writing was performed on compact computers and information, assignments, tests, books etc. were wirelessly transmitted, instead of passed via paper. The key to this leap in handheld capability is:
1) A 1+ Ghz CPU
2) a new, compact form of "stationary", writing that is more efficient than longhand, yet still preserves its continuity with the familiar letters and symbols of Western writing. This concept is no different than that of cursive maintaining a continuity with print.
The time has arrived (mid-2009) when the calculation speed for computerized symbol
recognition on small computers is very fast. Fast enough that the barrier to full speed "recognition" writing has disappeared. Given the right system, smooth, quick, neat, electronic writing with minimal errors is possible. A computer leveraged writer will be able to neatly write under stress, at a rate faster that one can write with ink pen on paper. "Stationary" Universal Computer Script was designed for the upcoming fast CPU and is the only practical writing system that can accomplish the task of outperforming pen on paper. It is its absolute adherence to English compatability that makes it practical. (For a writer of English, if it is not 100% English compatable, it cannot be learned without an immense struggle against the hardwired writing patterns developed in childhood, and is therefore not practical.) Note that free-style UCS can also be written, heads up, without looking. It uses a few very simple integrated gestures to communicate all of the necessary information to the software. "Heads up" writing cannot be performed on paper, on a handheld using Graffiti or natural writing, or on a small or virtual keyboard. (Contents)

Its special design offers serious computerized competition to "no fault" pen on paper writing. The integration of symbol types and the recogntion program produces excellent recognition results. Several years were spent testing every conceivable symbol match for Western cursive in order to provide 100% cross compatability with English and other Western European languages.

The UCS symbol recognition program is unlike those currently on the market. It is based on symbol boundaries. The above system of triangles represents the lines which separate neighboring symbols. One can observe that each boundary line is clearly established. No gaps or overlaps exist between each triangle and no gaps or overlaps in recognition exist between any UCS symbol. The probability of producing a software based recognition error for this character-specific type of recognition is extremely low.
