Explorations on breathing based text input for mobile devices

Published: 20 October 2014 Publication History

Abstract

This work proposes progresses on the use of a breathing based text input software for mobile as an alternative interaction technology for people with motor disabilities. It attempts to explore the processing of the audio from the microphone in mobile phones to select characters from dynamically generated keyboard. A proof of concept of this work is demonstrated by the implementation and experimentation of a mobile application prototype that enables users to perform text entry through "puffing" interaction.
