ABSTRACT:
A keypad optimization method for handheld devices with optimal multi-language entry capability and handiness for both handheld and fingertip manipulation receives application requirements containing language specification and performs application mapping using the application requirements to generate versatile keypad map output. A versatile keypad is implemented using versatile keypad map wherein the versatile keypad receives user input and generates received data output. An interactive optimization is performed using the received data having online action output. The online action is used to generate keypad output and screen display by the versatile keypad.An application mapping method receives application requirements containing language specification and performs language entry order grouping using the language specification to generate entry order groups and valid combination output. An inter-group mapping is performed using the application requirements and the entry order groups and valid combination having mapping sets output. An intra-group location mapping is performed using the application requirements and the mapping sets having key maps output.A versatile keypad interactive optimization method initializes the state value to initial input state and receives user key strike input. It performs interactive optimization using the user key strike and the state value having state update and symbol output.
