Original Abstract

This paper was inspired by the handicapped people with impaired finger movement. These people have difficulties with handling the mobile touch screen. The touch screen is controlled not by the fingers but by the knuckles and the small size of buttons leads to typing errors and mistakes. That is why we decided to customize the small buttons of the keyboard for knuckles and create a new fully functional keyboard with larger surface of contact for the accuracy.
