Wearable text input interface using touch typing skills

Abstract

A lot of systems and devices for text input in wearable computing environment have been proposed and released thus far, while these are not commonly used due to drawbacks such as slow input speed, long training period, low usability, and low wearability. This paper proposes a wearable text input device using touch typing skills that would have been acquired for full-size keyboard. Users who have touch typing skills can input texts without training.
