ABSTRACT METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CAPTURING INFORMATION IN DRAWING OR WRITING Obtaining data for signature recognition or data entry are relatively expensive because the apparatus used at each entry point is fairly complex. The present invention employs a relatively inexpensive pen which may be a ball pen with a transparent ball 34, an ink reservoir 32, a light sensitive device 11 and an analysing circuit 17. Either the circuit 17 or apparatus coupled to the pen is arranged to analyse, on a temporal basis, light received by the device 17 which has been modulated as the pen is used to write on closely lined paper. Alternatively, the pen may contain storage and transmit data for external analysis. The analysis can be used, for example, in signature verification or data entry. Other forms of inexpensive devices for obtaining data using pens writing on lined paper are described,
