Combining ubiquitous direction‐sensitive digitizing with a multimedia electronic dictionary for enhanced understanding

We propose and discuss a novel method for enhancing books and other printed materials with layers of digital data blended with their page content. In document digitizing a patented Cluster Pattern Interface (CLUSPI®) is used for providing orientation and position feedback that establishes connections with an electronic multimedia dictionary employing pictures, multilingual word explanations, and pronunciation samples. The work is mainly oriented to young children and aims to enhance their reading comprehension and to develop their language learning skills. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
