Abstract

The invention discloses an input method comprising the following steps: displaying a semitransparent virtual keyboard on a screen of the input equipment; receiving the input operation through the semitransparent virtual keyboard; and displaying an input result corresponding to the input operation in a display area. In the invention, the virtual keyboard is displayed by a semitransparent manner, thus increasing the display area of the virtual keyboard, lowering the input error rate, and improving the input speed and the input experience of users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to an input method and equipment. Background technique [0002] The keyboard was originally designed for the input of English letters in the era of typewriters. With the widespread use of computers, keyboard-based text input methods have begun to be widely used. However, the keyboard has only about a hundred keys, and large ideographic characters in Chinese or other languages ​​cannot be input through the keyboard without the help of software. There are tens of thousands of characters in Chinese, and special software must be used to input Chinese characters. The existing input methods include keyboard, handwriting, voice and so on. Among them, keyboard input is the most basic computer input method. [0003] With the popularization of computer technology, in the early 1990s, a new human-computer interaction technology - touch screen technology emerged. Using this technology, the user can...
