Any way to use the character recognition on an Android phone and have the characters show up in say the browser or another application?
My aim is to hand write characters on the phone, then have them automagically show up on my PC/laptop.
I’m aware of all the other methods/devices of/for character input, just curious about coopting the phone as an input device.
On your laptop you can use the touch pad to draw characters, on your desktop you can get a usb touch pad for a few hundred NT.
I don’t know any solution, but maybe can help find useful keywords for googling. I guess what you search for is using the android phone as “HID” human interface device. Theoretically, that could be done over USB or Bluetooth.
Here is one project I found, but I didn’t see any details how to use it:

And here some discussion, but I didn’t see any solution:

This here might be usable, over wi-fi and with apps installed on both android and PC:
But this here sounds the best fit:
Handwrite in Google Keep on phone and then they will automatically show up in Google Keep wherever it is open.
Can easily make Google Keep notes into Google Docs, Sheets, etc if useful.
