SnapKeys’ Videos Show Disruptive Applications for Its Invisible Keys, Including Turning Your Fingers into the Keys
By replacing the traditional keyboard, Snapkeys not only spares users from a clumsy typing experience, they spawned new applications that unleash the potential of touchscreen devices
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- SnapKeys (www.snapkeys.com), inventors and developers of the revolutionary SnapKeys 2i text and data entry system for smartphones, tablets and other input devices, released 6 videos on its website demonstrating examples of bold, new applications.
With SnapKeys 2i users are, for the first time, able to bypass the unworkable on-screen typing experience of the traditional QWERTY keyboard. SnapKeys 2i enables you to type on just 4 invisible keys. The result is that you can type faster and far more easily. Studies have shown that SnapKeys can be adopted in minutes because you are typing using the basic shapes you learned as a child. Once the keyboard is off the screen, a whole new world of applications is possible. The new videos drive home this point.
The first three videos cover:
- Video texting – Your whole screen is yours to text while seeing the other person in real time
- TV/Game Texting – You and your friends can watch the same content (e.g. sports) together while texting each other
- Remote Keyboard – Instead of being hunched up next to your computer, turn your smartphone or tablet into a keyboard and type comfortably from anywhere within wireless range.
The 4th video demonstrates how a common remote control can work far simpler utilizing Snapkeys 2i. It is the magic of SnapKeys on hard keys.
- IPTV/Entertainment Center Remote Control – entering your choices is far easier and faster without having to look down at your device. SnapKey’s technology can also turn your smartphone or tablet into an IPTV remote and SnapKeys will be showing a demo of this technology next month at IBC, Hall 3, Both A15, September 9-11, in Amsterdam.
The 5th video reveals yet another innovation built upon the Snapkeys core technology of “typing by 4 shapes.” In a situation where you would rather not have to stop and look down – like while you are jogging – you can type using simple gestures on your smartphone screen in conjunction with text-to-speech.
- Music-On-Demand – While syncing with music databases like iTunes, SnapKeys allows you to search and download music without looking at your device.
The final video demonstrates that by using the same “gestures” technology and text-to-speech, SnapKeys 2i can turn your smartphone into a “mobile multi-tasker” able to accomplish all this while driving (subject to your regional safety regulations):
- Email/texting
- GPS
- Music – search & download & play
- ebooks – search & play
- News – search & play
- Weather – search & play
- Traffic – search & play
For Benjamin Ghassabian, CEO and inventor of SnapKeys, the technology he has been developing is now at the right place at the right time. “The QWERTY keyboard is 120 year old technology being forced on highly advanced communication devices,” says Benjamin. “The reason SnapKeys is generating so much attention from the industry is because we have a simple solution to the clumsy typing experience that is frustrating consumers every day,” he continued. “And with the traditional keyboard off the screen we’ve enabled many new applications that were never before possible."
The company holds an extensive portfolio of patents.
