TapTap
Technology is new input & control technology for small touch
displays (e.g. 2.8" touch displays). Main advantage of using this
technology is that you can easily control your program or input text with controls big enough for you to read and particularly to touch of course with your own fingers (no stylus needed!) without compromise
of operating space of your application because whole control or text
typing is happening only on small space what is dedicated to it. This
all you can do with just single tap
(no gestures or other less accurate ways) what is the fastest and most
accurate way of controling or text typing on touch displays.
Following example can explain more clearly how is it working:
 | | In the first level you can choose from one of the buttons e.g. you will choose button "B".
In the second level you have another three choices plus "back button".
In optional next levels you have another three choices plus "back button".
It's
only up to you how many levels you will create or what functions you
will assign to the buttons e.g. in additional levels you can assign
"home" function to another button which can return you to the first
level (buttons "A", "B", "C" and "D") for faster navigation in levels... |
Usability
This
technology is highly usable in various kinds of applications. Here are
the examples of SIP (download on www.taptapkeyb.ic.cz) and Picture Viewer:
With
single tap you can select char group (or e.g. change char panels to
number char groups...) e.g. you will select first char group what
contains small letters "a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f" and "g".
| | 
Now
you can choose char/letter what you intent to write or you can
use other buttons like space, backspace, enter and navigation
buttons to change char panels (small/big letters, numbers, special
chars...) or to return to previous char panel. |
Here is another example in this case it's simple picture viewer. When you tap somewhere down-right...
| | 
...than small panel appears. You can choose any operational button or "hide" button. After you will choose e.g. "Zoom" button...
|
| | | 
...than "Zoom" panel appears (second level)... | | 
...and here you can zoom in, zoom out, display picture in original size or return to main panel (first level).
