Smart phones and PDAs offer an impressive amount of computing power. But in practical terms, they are not always easy to use. Writing long emails or other documents can frankly be a pain. We have the solution... The revolutionary Virtual Keyboard (VKB) uses the latest infrared & laser technology to project a full-size keyboard onto any flat surface. For the first time Users can then type as normal on this virtual keyboard (VKB), enabling them to work quickly and effectively, taking the pain and frustration out of minuscule keyboards and handwriting recognition software. Imagine how much easier it would be if you had a proper mobile phone keyboard that fits in your pocket... How does it work? You can use the VKB (Virtual PC Keyboard) with both your laptop and PC and with a compatible mobile device, compatible Smartphone and PDA. The virtual laser keyboard (VKB) works by using both infrared and laser technology to produce an invisible circuit and project a full-size virtual QWERTY keyboard on to any surface. The virtual PC keyboard behaves exactly like a real one: direction technology based on optical recognition enables the user to tap the images of the keys, complete with realistic tapping sounds(!), which feeds into the compatible PDA, Smartphone, laptop or PC. The VKB Virtual Keyboard has a wide range of applications: - Personal digital assistants - Cellular telephones - Space saving computers - Tablet PCs - Laptops - Industrial environments - Clean rooms - Sterile and medical environments - Test Equipment - Transport (Air, Rail, Automotive) Roughly the size of a disposable lighter, (90 x 34 x 24 mm), the VKB enables users to type email or long text as easily as with a conventional keyboard. Imagine how much easier it would be if you had a proper mobile phone keyboard that fits in your pocket... Virtual PC Keyboard (VKB) Settings Using the VKB, the following settings can be controlled either via your laptop, your PC or your compatible Smartphone and PDA: Sound: Users can control the virtual keyboard sound effects (keyclicks) Intensity: Control the intensity of the projected virtual keyboard Connection: Connection to the appropriate Laptop/PC port Sensitivity: Users can adjust the sensitivity of the virtual keyboard Timeouts: Adjustable timeouts to conserve the virtual keyboard's battery life Auto-repeat: Allows the VKB to automatically repeat a key based on prescribed parameters The Virtual Keyboard uses light to project a full-sized computer keyboard onto almost any surface. Used with Smart Phones and PDA's, the VKB provides a practical way to do email, word processing and spreadsheet tasks, allowing the user to leave the laptop computer at home. VKB observes the user's finger movements to interpret and record keystrokes. Since the virtual keyboard is an image projected in light, it completely disappears when not in use.
