On the Unipos website, Tap Systems' wristband-type keyboard controller for AR/VR/MR "TapXRPage was added.
This is a wristband-type keyboard controller that comes equipped with over 100 commands that are convenient for operating digital devices such as smartphones, tablets, and AR/VR headsets.
Introduction
Conventional wearable keyboard controllers have had issues such as the time it takes for users to get used to the new input method, low accuracy in recognizing taps and gestures resulting in frequent input errors, and short battery life. These issues not only impair the user experience, but also lead to a decrease in opportunities for use.
TapXR is a wearable device that accurately detects the taps of a user's fingers, enabling typing, command input, and menu navigation. It enables fast, accurate, eyes-free text input and control on any Bluetooth-enabled device, including smartphones, tablets, and AR/VR headsets.
