Watch-Top Text-Entry: Can Phone-Style Predictive Text-Entry Work with Only 5 Buttons?
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an initial study into the viability of text entry on a watch face using four alphabetic buttons and a central space key. The study includes a technical evaluation of likely error rates using a large text corpus and user studies on palmtop emulated mobile phone and watch. The results, though in favour of the phone pad, are encouraging and show such a method is feasible.

متن کاملLess-Tap: A Fast and Easy-to-learn Text Input Technique for Phones
A new technique to enter text using a mobile phone keypad, Less-Tap, is described. The traditional touchtone phone keypad is ambiguous for text input because each button encodes 3 or 4 letters. As in Multitap, our method requires the user to press buttons repeatedly to get a required letter. However, in Less-Tap, letters are rearranged within each button according to their frequency. This way, ...
متن کاملCorpus-based stochastic finite-state predictive text entry for reduced keyboards: application to Catalan
Users of digital mobile phones have access to an increasing number of text-based services but most of them can only use a very reduced keyword for text entry. Traditionally, this has been solved by means of multiple tapping and delays or nextcharacter keys (e.g. 66(pause)666 for no), which is slow (two taps per letter on average), inconvenient, and prone to error. Recently, some mobile terminal...
متن کاملAdaptive and Optimization Predictive Text Entry for Short Message Service (Sms)
The ability to enter text on phones is crucial for utilizing the Short Message Service (SMS) of digital cellular networks. Standard 12-button phone keypads are not naturally suited for text entry as each button on them encodes three or more alphabetic letters. Various techniques have been proposed and implemented to improve text entry tasks. One such technique is predictive text entry. In this ...
متن کاملMobile Phone Keypad Design for Fast Chinese Text Entry by Phonetic Spelling
The trend of using text messaging on mobile phones has grown rapidly in the last decade. However, mapping the alphabet to twelve phone keys introduces challenging ambiguities for text entry. This challenge is exacerbated in Chinese by the large phonetic alphabet and homophonic Chinese characters. In response, we propose a novel algorithm to generate keypad layouts that reduce ambiguity for Chin...
