COMPUTER INPUT PERFORMANCE MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

A method for monitoring a user's input performance on a computer having an initialized performance status indicator, the method comprising: (a) measuring the performance of a user entering information into the computer using an input device over a time period to determine at least one input performance characteristic selected from the group consisting of activity rate and error rate; (b) comparing the input performance characteristic to at least one limit selected from the group consisting of a high limit and a low limit, if the input performance characteristic is greater than the high limit, then adjusting the performance status indicator according to a first function, if the input performance characteristic is less than the low limit, then adjusting the performance status indicator according to a second function; and (c) providing an indication of input performance based on the performance status indicator.
