Sign language for smartphones

The inventor of the well-known technology of fast text input on small T9 keyboards showed the world his new creation. Following the evolution of mobile device interfaces, Cliff Kushler (Cliff Kushler) has developed a method for entering text on touch screens, in which the stylus (or finger) moves along a virtual keyboard, capturing all the letters in a typed word. In the image below, for example, the word “quick” is typed. Clif intends to promote his idea under the brand Swype . An interesting video is available on the technology description page .



The development is currently being conducted mainly for Windows Mobile, XP and Vista platforms, as well as Microsoft Surface. The analog for the iPhone / iPod Touch cannot be done by the Kashler due to negotiations still underway with Apple, but it expresses a great desire to create it. Linux and Symbian are also in the plans of his company.
