I'd suggest checking out the article http://www.fedoraoutlier.com/handwriting-in-ios-7-2/ to learn more about the feature. I've heard it's also been addressed on several podcasts as well.
Basically, you can draw the shape of a letter to input it as opposed to other text input methods, such as a virtual keyboard or a bluetooth keyboard. You can also use it to search for an object on a page.
