Problems solved by technology

But if there are too many choices, the user has to keep pressing keys until the desired word appears or the user completes the word
However, text entry is slowed down rather than sped up as the user has to switch eyes between the touchscreen's keyboard and the full word column after each letter
As a result, some users will find the touchscreen and keyboard on top to be somewhat cumbersome and more error-prone
[0010] Due to the foregoing problems, regardless of the significant developments in technology in this field, when users manually enter text on portable computers, they still encounter difficulties or difficulties due to the inherent limitations of simplified keyboards, handwriting digitizers, and touchscreen / keyboards. mistake

Embodiment Construction

[0020] introduce

[0021] One aspect of the disclosure relates to a handheld mobile device that provides a user-operated text entry facility. The device can be represented by various hardware components and interconnections, figure 1 An example is illustrated. figure 1 The handheld mobile device includes various processing subcomponents, each of which may be implemented by one or more hardware devices, software devices, parts of one or more hardware or software devices, or a combination of the foregoing. The composition of these subcomponents is described in detail below with reference to exemplary digital data processing apparatus, logic circuits, and signal bearing media.

Abstract

From a text entry tool (102), a digital data processing device receives inherently ambiguous user input (107). Independent of any other user input, the device interprets the received user input against a vocabulary (156) to yield candidates such as words (of which the user input forms the entire word or part such as a root, stem, syllable, affix), or phrases having the user input as one word. The device displays the candidates and applies speech recognition (130) to spoken user input. If the recognized speech comprises one of the candidates, that candidate is selected. If the recognized speech forms an extension of a candidate, the extended candidate is selected. If the recognized speech comprises other input (115), various other actions are taken.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to user manual text entry using digital data processing equipment. In particular, the present invention relates to computer-driven operations using speech input to supplement the inherently ambiguous manual text input of a user to disambiguate between possible different interpretations of the user's text input. Background technique [0002] Over the years, portable computers have become smaller and smaller. Tremendous developments in the wireless industry have produced reliable, convenient, and almost universal mobile devices such as cellular telephones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), global positioning system (GPS) units, and the like. In order to make a truly usable portable computer, the most important size-limiting component is the keyboard. [0003] Several solutions have been developed for entering data on portable computers without using a standard keyboard. One such approach is to use keyboards with fewer k...
