With a total headcount of 700 across its
six labs globally and operations in India for the past three
years, HP Labs (HPL), is all set to roll out vernacular
keypads in the domestic market as also a system to capture,
store and redistribute educational programmes from television
along with printable data in quality format.
Mr Ajay Gupta, Director, HP Labs, said
HP Labs India has developed a cost-effective, easy-to-use
vernacular keypad. A user can write by making gestures on
the keypad with the help of a pen, similar to writing.
This Gesture Keyboard is compatible with
various editors, databases, search engines, and mailing
and chat applications.
Mr Gupta said the keypad has been developed
for Devanagari script and is being tested for Tamil script.
