The Korean twiddler: one-handed chording text entry for Korean mobile phones

Published:21 April 2006Publication History

ABSTRACT

We present a text entry method using the Twiddler one-handed chording keyboard to input Hangul, the Korean alphabet, on mobile phones. After estimating keystrokes of various text entry methods, we found that our Twiddler 3 Bul keymap has the fewest keystrokes needed among the methods evaluated.
