Stroke Streamlining
The stroke follows your intention, not every shake.
Best experienced with a pointer.
The problem
Every tiny tremor in the hand becomes a kink in the ink, so slow careful lines look noisier than they feel.
The solution
Each sample is streamlined and smoothed into a stabler geometry before it is drawn.

How it works
- Raw samples include hand shake that the user did not intend as shape.
- Each sample is pulled toward a streamline target instead of being committed raw.
- Smoothing reduces the remaining jitter.
- The streamlined point, not the raw sample, is appended to the stroke.
- The rendered path stays stable as the stroke grows.

Drawing apps
Freehand ink stays clean when the path lags slightly behind shaky input.
Note apps
Handwriting looks intentional instead of vibrating with every micro-movement.
Whiteboards
Slow annotation lines stay straight enough to read without post-processing blur.
Signature pads
Signatures keep character while losing high-frequency hand tremor.
