Abstract
The current keyboard typing experience is inefficient due to the need to rely on external technologies such as mice or trackpads. The Keyboard Interface With Integrated Gesture Recognition (KIWIGR) aims to solve this issue by implementing common word processing actions into keyboard gestures. The gestures explored in this research project aid users with document navigation as well as text highlighting. A sensor tablet and a machine learning model were used to implement these gestures into a keyboard-like system. The current prototype of the KIWIGR uses image amplification, image combination, and the aforementioned machine learning model to help predict keyboard gestures.
