SYSTEMS TO ENHANCE DATA ENTRY IN MOBILE AND FIXED ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
1. A data entry system comprising;
- a touch sensitive keyboard;
a plurality of zones on said keyboard each corresponding to a plurality of characters; and
a word predictive system;
wherein providing a swiping action anywhere over one or more zones corresponds to interacting with at least some of said zones, wherein each of said interactions ambiguously corresponds to any of the characters assigned to the corresponding zone;
and wherein upon providing an input information corresponding to at least one said swiping action the system predicts from a database of words one or more words corresponding to said interactions.

Abstract
A data input system has a keypad defining a plurality of keys. Each key contains at least one symbol of a group of symbols. The group of symbols is divided into subgroups each having at least one of alphabetical symbols, numeric symbols, and command symbols, where each subgroup is associated with at least a portion of a user'"'"'s finger. A finger recognition system is in communication with at least one key, where the key has at least a first symbol from a first subgroup and at least a second symbol from a second subgroup. The finger recognition system recognizes the portion of the user'"'"'s finger when the finger interacts with the key so as to select the symbol on the key, corresponding to the subgroup associated with the portion of the user'"'"'s finger.
