When your Android device has a touch screen and the keyboard is hard to use, then you’re probably searching for a better solution to solve this writing problem. For users who have a physical keyboard, this inconvenient doesn’t exist, but there are other problems like a huge design, hardware problems and so on. In this moment, the developers come with a lot of virtual keyboard alternatives for touch screen devices(smartphones and tablets), but these virtual keyboards have the same philosophy, and this thing makes to take pretty much space on the touch display.
Today we have great news, the Minuum Keyboard Project want to change this inconvenient and also want radically change the virtual keyboards concept.
The change they come is that, the Minuum Keyboard keeps the QWERTY standard, but the keys space is used in other way, the keys are not arranged on three rows and nine columns for this new keyword concept and will be on a single row.
The main idea is to arrange the letters of the QWERTY keyboard in order to be redistributed and arranged (QAZ WSX EDC), and so on. All these changes are optimized to obtain more free space from your touch display, and other advantage is that you can easily resize its dimensions.
The Minimum Keyboard will be a great idea even for the smartphones that have a smaller touch-screen, because for users who have a smartphone with a smaller display when taping the display space is truly impacted.
The Minuum Keyword depends on the hardware and software which are running this application because this keyword is based almost on predictions. When the users want to type a word, some predictions will be displayed, and they will chose the correct word. The virtual keys are emulated and will be more oriented for the users needs. This keyword comes to be a great solution for devices like watch, ring, or bracelet which has an available touch display.
This Minuum keyboard is for the moment in prototype stage for the most important smart devices word wide(iOS and Android based), but the developers who work on this project are estimating the first Minuum keyboard beta version to be available for the Android devices on the first Q1 2014.
