Khan academy has made a new handwriting recognition software that can read and understand handwriting using programming. The software was released as a mobile app. The new version adds more personalized lesson plans, including 150,000 lessons that are aligned to the national Common Core educational standards. It can automatically identify long equations (and is even able to manipulate and erase them easily), which was designed in partnership with handwriting recognition company, MyScript. It is also possible to put math equations into a computer. Academic papers are submitted in electronic form, though mostly for publishing.
As of now, the equations are mostly for early high school. But it’s easy to see how they extend to all sorts of advanced math in the near future.
