Abstract

A variety of methods and systems for presenting and delivering user application input choices. One-handed or vocal user input (1) provides chords or syllables (21). The invention includes systems and methods for presenting user application input choices, chord or syllable based apparatus and sub-system for generating user application input choices in response to input signals associated with chords or syllables (21). The chord blocks (21) have two parts: a row (23) on the top called the chord map and a large of rectangle (24) below called the selecting cell.
One embodiment of input device resembles a joystick (1) and includes a base (2) and a key carrier (3) extending from the base (2). A single key (4) is provided along the top of the carrier, and four keys (5-8) extend widthwise along a side surface. A system presents and delivers user application input choices. An input device receives chords and syllables (21). A processor associated with the input device (1) receives chords or syllables (21) and generates input signals, a second processor for receiving and evaluating the input signals and for sending a user application signal to the user application processor of the computer.
