QUICK DATA ENTRY SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

A system for inputting data in an electronic device comprising: a segmented pattern on a touch sensitive graphical user interface; a numeric value associated to each of the segments; a character table stored in the electronic device, the said character table having at least one set of numeric values associated to at least one character; a set of characters displayed on the segmented pattern, each said character associated to at least one segment of the segmented pattern and the numeric value of that said segment in at least one set of the numeric values stored in the character table and the said set associated to the said character; an input signal received on at least one segment to provide an input having numeric values; a matched character determined according to input having numeric values and the character table; wherein the matched character is displayed on the touch sensitive graphical user interface of an electronic device, stored and the segmented pattern on the touch sensitive graphical user interface of the electronic device is reset.

1. A system for inputting data in an electronic device, the system comprising:
a segmented pattern on a touch sensitive graphical user interface of an electronic device, the segmented pattern having at least two segments; a numeric value in the electronic device associated to each of the at least two segments; a character table stored in the electronic device, the said character table having at least one set of numeric values associated to at least one character; a set of characters displayed on the segmented pattern, each said character associated to at least one segment of the segmented pattern and the numeric value of that said segment is in at least one set of the numeric values stored in the character table and the said set is associated to the said character; an input signal received on at least one segment of the segmented pattern to provide an input having numeric values associated with each of the segments; means for determining that entry of input signal is complete; a matched character determined by the electronic device according to input having numeric values, and the character table; wherein the matched character is displayed on the touch sensitive graphical user interface of an electronic device and stored in the electronic device and the segmented pattern on the touch sensitive graphical user interface of the electronic device is reset.
