Abstract
A character actuating device for forming words utilizing a plurality of actuators that form the beginnings, endings, and vowel structures in words found in multiple languages. Certain actuators may also be employed to alter the words formed by the first, second, and third actuators, as wells as to shorten the number of strokes needed to form the words used by first, second, and third actuators.
Claims12
A character actuator device for forming a polysyllabic word employing two hands of a user,
- comprising:
- a. a first plurality of actuators, each actuator of said first plurality of actuators representing a character of a first plurality of characters useable to form a beginning of the polysyllabic word;
- b. a second plurality of actuators, each actuator of said second plurality of actuators representing a character of a second plurality of characters, and a third plurality of actuators, each actuator of said third plurality of actuators representing a character of a third plurality of characters, said second and third characters representing an ending of the polysyllabic word;
- said beginning and ending of the polysyllabic word being independent of the syllabic content of the polysyllabic word;
- and
- c. a fourth category of actuators, each actuator of said fourth category of actuators representing a particular character representing an alteration of the polysyllabic word being formed by said first, second, and third character actuators, any one of each of said first, second, third and fourth plurality of actuators being adapted for simultaneous activation.
3 more elements
A character actuator device used for texting language employing a single hand of a user comprising:
- a. a first plurality of finger activated character actuators and
- b. at least one palm activated character actuators, at least one of said plurality of finger activated character actuators being adapted for simultaneous activation with said palm activated character actuator to produce an output representing a word, a series of words, or a portion of a word.
A method of texting a phrase employing single hand:
- a. activating a first character actuator on a keyboard by use of a finger of a single hand of the user,
