Ink Harmony: An AI- and VR-enhanced System for Calligraphy Education

Abstract

This work introduces an assistive system designed to deepen the engagement with the art of calligraphy and Chinese culture. Users input the text they wish to learn, which is then processed by an AI framework to create a thematic photo. This photo forms part of a virtual environment, establishing an environment that contextualizes the calligraphy experience. Simultaneously, the system communicates with a robotic arm, guiding the user’s hand to improve writing technique and engagement with the art form. This combination of AI, virtual reality, and robotic assistance paves the way for interactive learning and appreciation of calligraphy.
