Hi Fabrizio, Thanks for keeping us posted. What results have you had from computer printed material? Would it be possible to print a page from the American Sign Language Wikipedia (SVG) and use Optical Glyph Recognition to identify the symbols used? https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/ase/AS18517S20500S2ff00M529x544S2ff00482x483S20500519x504S18517503x517 Simple math would identify their 2-dimensional placement. It sounds like it would be possible to create Formal SignWriting strings from a scan. The strings wouldn't be exactly the same as the input, but searching in SignWriting doesn't require exact string matches. This is very exciting.
