Look at these PDF files. Maybe of your use (not sure though )

So are you looking for something that converts diagrams and sketches into digital data format that can be viewed on the computer. I think AutoCAD is something that deals with this. Get it confirmed. Meanwhile, I found this Supporting Generic Sketching-Based Input of Diagrams in a Domain-Specific Visual Language Meta-Tool. Something useful maybe..
