Keep in Touch

چکیده
Project Vision In many parts of the world, touch typing has become such a ubiquitous skill that children learn it in their first few years of schooling. Although numerous interactive learning systems for touch typing exist, currently no software exists to provide feedback on whether the correct finger is used to press each key or the force with which the key was pressed. Incorrect finger usage and typing force not only reduces typing efficiency, but could also lead to ergonomic injuries later, such as repetitive motion injury and carpal tunnel syndrome. To address this problem, we have developed a smart glove capable of correlating the finger used to each keystroke, thus enabling the learning software to track finger usage and pressure while typing.
