Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to the case where the finger pressing a key on the keyboard is not the generally recommended finger.
The present invention relates to a keyboard operation training machine that notifies the operator of that fact.

[0002]

[Prior Art] In the conventional practice of keyboard operation, the computer is displayed as "Please press △ with ○ × finger,"
The operator pressed the finger while checking it, and the match / mismatch between the finger and the key was not managed by the computer.

[0003]

In order to operate the keyboard with a blind touch, it is recommended that this key should be pressed with this finger. In the conventional keyboard operation practice machine, the relationship between the key and the finger, which is important for quickly hitting the keyboard, is ignored simply by specifying the character to be pressed and determining whether or not the pressed key is correct. . The present invention was created in view of this point, and in practice of keyboard operation, there is provided a keyboard operation training machine that enables an operator to efficiently and quickly learn the relationship between keys and fingers that is generally recommended. It is intended to be provided.

[0004]

Therefore, a keyboard operation practicing machine of the present invention comprises a keyboard, a display, gloves in which pressure detecting means is provided at the tip of a finger, and a computer. The computer checks the process of designating a character to be entered on the display screen and whether the code information from the keyboard matches the code of the designated character. Display processing,
If they match, refer to the pressure signal from the glove pressure detection means to check which finger has pressed the key, and if the pressed finger is not the recommended finger for pressing the key. In addition to displaying that fact on the display, the processing for displaying the correct finger on the display is also performed.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the appearance of the apparatus of the present invention.
In the figure, 1 is a display, 2 is a computer,
Reference numeral 3 indicates a keyboard, 4L indicates left-hand gloves, and 4R indicates right-hand gloves.

The operator wears gloves 4L and 4R and operates the keys on the keyboard 3. When a key on the keyboard 3 is pressed, a key code corresponding to the pressed key is sent to the computer 2. Further, key pressing finger information indicating which finger has pressed the key is sent from the gloves 4L, 4R to the computer 2.

FIG. 2 is a view showing a finger portion of a glove used in the present invention. In the figure, 4 is a glove, 5 is an electrode, and 6
Also indicate electrodes.

The gloves 4 are made of cloth. When the key is pressed down with a finger, the needle-shaped electrode 5 penetrates through the cloth and comes into contact with the lower electrode 6 to inform the computer 2 that the computer 2 has been switched on. A pressure sensor may be used instead of the electrodes 5 and 6 as shown.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart of the processing procedure in the present invention. These processes are performed under the control of the computer 2. Specify the character to be pressed on the display. Check whether the code from the keyboard matches the code of the specified character. If YES, go to and if NO, go to. Refer to the key press finger information from the glove, check which finger has pressed the key, and check whether the press finger is the recommended finger for pressing the key. Go to step NO
If, go to. It is determined that the user has made a mistake in pressing the button, and the operator is informed of this fact on the display. The operator is informed by the display that the pressed finger is not correct, and the operator is informed of the correct finger by the display.

[0010]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, it is possible to confirm whether or not the key and the finger match each other on the display, so that the operator can concentrate on the display, and the blind or You can practice even touching, and you can speed up the keyboard input by the operator. Further, the invention can be applied to a keyboard operation such as a piano.
