SmartNotes

Note editor with character recognition, keyboard, font size, font color and font type control. This widget is an attempt at checking how AI and deep learning can be applied directly to wearable devices. The answer: maybe not quite there yet but close. This note app has a deep neural network and can recognize "hand-written" characters drawn on the touch screen. It has the largest neural network that can fit on the watch memory, which is unfortunately not very big. For comparison it is 1 million time smaller than ChatGPT. The processing is also a bit slow. This makes the recognition work OK but not 100%. There are 42 characters recognized (A-Z, 0-9, period, comma, exclamation mark, question mark, space and new paragraph). They must be drawn in upper case. The space is just an horizontal line in the middle of the screen and the new paragraph a vertical line in the middle of the screen. That said there is a keyboard mode for people frustrated with the touch recognition, so the widget is still usable. When the widget launches, one can see existing notes or create a new note. Notes can be deleted by tapping the "Edit" area at the bottom and then tapping the delete button on the selected note to be deleted. Tapping "Edit" again will cancel the delete options. There are 3 modes: - View mode (eye icon). The text can be scrolled in this mode, by dragging up/down or using the up/down buttons - Draw mode (s icon). Draw letters on the touch screen and wait until the green circle disappears (see animation). - Keyboard mode (three circles icon). Characters are split into 8 groups allowing for a secondary menu to pop up for accessing the characters. In the draw mode and keyboard mode, the font size, font color and font type can be changed during editing using the blue icons. One can also toggle between automatic case or upper or lower case. Automatic case will select upper case on the first letter after a period or a new paragraph. In both modes, the last character can be deleted (backspace) by double tapping. In draw mode, first wait to see te red outline and then tap again to reduce missed detection. Note length is only limited by memory. It should be able to support several thousand characters on each note without any issue although it has not been tested with this many notes. After viewing or editing, a confirmation menu will pop up asking to save/update the note or ignore the changes when the back button is pressed to return to the list. The following setting is available for MIPS devices: - Background light. The background light can be set to a given strength (it will stay on as long as the widget is active) or use the system default (will turn off after the timeout configured in the watch settings, which can be annoying) Feel free to donate to support more features and more free apps/widgets/faces using https://www.paypal.com/donate/?business=T5YMA6TVQXWQ4&no_recurring=0&item_name=Donate+to+support+the+development+of+more+free+Garmin+watches+apps,+widget+or+faces Join my patreon for more content at https://patreon.com/Garmin20100
