FIO-KeyBO patent has been filed to US, JP, KR, CN, IN & EU
The invention of this application is concerned with how one can emulate thelayout of a QWERTY keyboard, i.e. one with a conventional keyboard layoutdesigned for use with ten fingers, using a telephone keypad or remotecontroller having three columns and four rows. It has previously beenproposed to use one key to select more than one character but even if eachkey can select three alphanumeric characters, that still only allows for ninecharacters per row, whereas a QWERTY keyboard requires eleven.
The solution offered by the invention is to place characters between keys and torequire two adjacent keys to be depressed simultaneously in order to recorda keystroke. Nowhere in the prior art has it been suggested to use the tip ofone finger to press two keys simultaneously. Shift, Alt and Ctrl keys on akeyboard are actuated at the same time as other keys but not using the tipof the same finger, indeed not even using two fingers of the same hand.
The invention offers for the first time, the possibility of one finger text entryusing a keypad having the layout of a conventional telephone while allowingthe operator to find all the characters intuitively in the same relativepositions as they would occupy on a conventional ten-finger keyboard.Neither this objective, nor the method by which it has been achieved, issuggested by the prior art. .
