         The data were collected in order to study human sequencing
         strategies when non-linguistic symbols had to be drawn in 
         different orientations.

         Number of writers: 64
         Number of patterns: 30
         Total number of patterns: 1920

         Patterns are:

 angry-pacman-down, angry-pacman-left,angry-pacman-right, angry-pacman-up	
 bike-engine-down, bike-engine-left, bike-engine-right, bike-engine-up	
 circle-1, circle-2, circle-3	
 cocktail-tomato-down, cocktail-tomato-left, cocktail-tomato-right, cocktail-tomato-up	
 concentric-2	
 pacman-down, pacman-left, pacman-right, pacman-up	
 rectangle-horizontal, rectangle-vertical	
 round-wedge-down, round-wedge-left, round-wedge-right, round-wedge-up	
 smaller-than	
 smaller-than-broken	
 V-shape	
 V-shape-broken	

 These patterns can be extracted with the UNIPEN program for Unix:
 upread

 The accompanying image sample "patterns.gif" shows a few patterns,
 the tapered trace drawn thickest at the point of first pen down.

 Signal quality:
   - Tablet details are unknown.
   - coordinate streams may contain some spatial errors
   - there may be glitches at pen up or down due to switching problems of
     the pen
