LONDON (ShareCast) - (ShareCast News) - International provider of technology and intellectual property investment services Tekcapital announced on Wednesday that it acquired the worldwide exclusive licence to a software program and patent application for enhanced gesture recognition for computing devices, which it believed has the potential to enhance the accuracy of the detection of gesture and character inputs across a wide range of mobile and desktop devices.
The AIM-traded firm said that recognising gesture inputs on a computing device was a "challenge" that could be approached with different methods.
With the software, when a touch-sensitive device is provided with 2D input drawn with a stylus or made with a finger, synthetic data is produced by a new method called Gesture Path Stochastic Resampling.
The "efficient" software algorithm required minimal coding to implement, and rapidly decoded analog gesture input.
With the new technology, the directors of Tekcapital said they believed it would be possible to improve the accuracy and the speed of gesture recognisers, as the technology was fast, versatile, language independent, and was compatible with existing recognition systems on any device.
"We are excited to have acquired the exclusive rights to this novel software technology aimed at improving the accurate detection of gesture inputs for mobile devices, tablets and desktop computers," said executive chairman Clifford M. Gross.
"Our goal is to license the technology to a leading device manufacturer or software company," Dr Gross added.
