SlideIt, Dasur's patent-protected recognition technology, and ThumbKey are redefining the next generation of touch screens, ensuring that on-the-go users can enjoy superior accuracy, efficiency and speed.

Instead of tapping each letter, with SlideIt users simply point to first letter of a word and slide the stylus to the subsequent letters.  Spacing is achieved by just lifting the stylus. SlideIt is the first technology to combine three features: sliding, prediction and graffiti. 

"By simultaneously applying those features," explains Dr. Daniel Suraqui, Dasur’s Chief Executive Officer, "we have created a robust technology that is singularly more powerful than anything else in the market today.  By vastly enhancing many familiar features and introducing new ones, we have exquisitely simplified touch screen use for busy, on-the-go consumers and are leading the way for the next generation text input solutions for PDAs and smartphones."

ThumbKey’s technology brings the touch screen method familiar to BlackBerry users to a more accurate and easier level of operation with the capability of using but one hand. While with the standard-sized keyboard achieving accuracy is difficult -- the keyboards and screens are getting smaller, while our thumbs are not -- Dasur’s ThumbKey uses a unique algorithm that allows users to just press in the general vicinity of the required key for the intended word to appear on the screen.  The algorithm processes the typed letters and its disambiguation features suggests the intended word and conveniently displays additional possibilities next to the keyboard. 

SlideIt and ThumbKey support all versions of Microsoft’s Windows Mobile and similarly support three languages: English, French and Hebrew. The company will make the keyboards available soon in the others operating systems and in many other languages.
