Abstract
HandSpy is a research platform designed to record, log, and analyze real-time handwriting events captured via digital digitized pens during writing tasks. HandSpy 3.0 introduces a modern, modular architecture that addresses stability, cross-platform data synchronization, automated emotion dictionary marking, and Google Drive workflow integration. By recording precise timestamped stroke coordinates, pauses, and edits, HandSpy 3.0 enables cognitive psychology researchers to study writing fluency, cognitive load, and physiological markers during expressive writing experiments.
