Universal Ink Model
The Universal Ink Model defines a language-neutral, hardware- and platform-neutral data model for representing and manipulating digital ink data captured using an electronic pen or stylus, or using touch input.
The main aspects of the ink model are:
- Interoperability of ink-based data models by defining a standardized interface with other systems
- Biometric data storage mechanism
- Ink data storage mechanism
- Rendering configurations storage mechanism
- Ability to compose spline/raw-input based logical trees, which are contained within the ink model
- Portability, by enabling conversion to common industry standards
- Extensibility, by enabling the description of ink data related semantic metadata
- Standardized serialization mechanism
