%0 Journal Article %T Data Glove For Note Taking %A Akshay Mahajan %A Aniruddha Bajaj %A Ganesh Gore %A Jayati Ambekar %J International Journal of Computer Science Issues %D 2012 %I IJCSI Press %X We aim at creating a note-taking device typically to be used in a classroom environment. Traditional methods of writing have limited speed and cannot keep up with speech. Writing with pen on paper requires us to look at the paper, which can reduce concentration on the ongoing discussion. Laptops are costly, power consuming and heavy for such a trivial task. Voice to text programs dont have the freedom of choosing the text to be included, and noise in the room can affect performance of such a program. Smart phones have a small keypad, which demands more user concentration. We have created a glove that one can wear and touch-type on any flat surface with minimal costs and power consumption. With ergonomics in mind, the glove has been designed to yield ten self fabricated switch button sensors to finally create a complete utility for simple and an inexpensive typing tool. %K Interaction %K Gloves %K Gesture Control %K Input device %K IJCSI %U http://www.ijcsi.org/papers/IJCSI-9-6-1-452-455.pdf
