The Swype Input MethodDegree Project in Computer Science

Sammanfattning: Typing is probably always going to be an contemporary topic, with the absolute goal of transferring text between the user and a technical device freely. This report means to examine a typing technique, where user drawn continuous lines on a virtual keyboard get transfered into words, also known as swype. The report concludes that using a fairly simple algorithm combined with a few optimizations, it is possible to implement a swype accurate enough to be considered a realistic alternative to current typing methods on devices with touch screens.
