Abstract
An apparatus and method of encoding and communicating symbols is provided. A user encodes a symbol using a sliding motion of a fingertip in relation to a proximity and touch-detecting glance pad. The user imagines a polygon on the surface of the pad. The user makes an encoding touch generally coextensive with one of the sides of the polygon in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. The glance pad detects the motion and infers the intent of the user, assigning a symbol to the encoding touch.
