Embodiment Construction

[0019] Figure 1 presents a block diagram of an apparatus 100 of the present invention. The device 100 comprises a first input system 140 . The input system 140 is ambiguous in the sense that it can associate a given user input 122 with a number of possible selectable data 124 . The user input 122 is thus ambiguous, since the device 100 thus far cannot determine the actual selectable data the user is trying to enter. The input system 140 includes, for example, a keypad 102 with a reduced number of keys compared to conventional keypads. A key of the keyboard 102 is associated with several selectable data. In this embodiment, the optional data may be a letter, a number or a graphic symbol. "Optional data" as used herein may also mean a combination of letters, numbers or symbols such as words or sentences. Optional data may also be used in other embodiments such as entries in a calendar, times in a schedule, areas in a map, and the like. The input system 102 further includes ...

Abstract

A device is provided with two complementary input systems. One of the two input systems is ambiguous in the senses that it associates a first given user input with more than one potential data. The device cannot recognize from this first input system which actual data is sought by the user. To resolve the plurality of potential data the user provides a second user input through the second input system. From the second user input, a processing unit is capable of identifying from the plurality of potential data, the one actually sought by the user.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device with multiple data input systems. The present invention relates to a variety of personal consumption devices into which a user enters data. Background technique [0002] Manufacturers of consumer electronics and communication devices such as cellular phones, personal digital assistants, Web personal access devices, instant messaging, or remote controls place restrictions on the area of ​​the device dedicated to entering data. As the size of these devices has decreased, the real keyboard has been reduced or replaced by a virtual keyboard, for example. This thus results in a very small single real or virtual letter key. Individual keys are difficult to pick up the correct symbols on the keyboard without using a special tool such as a stylus. This can also result in spelling errors, ambiguous data entry, and slow entry of data. To remedy these disadvantages, various solutions have been conceived. Some of the proposed...
