字源公司宣布推出世界上首款具备文本预测功能的移动设备手写识别解决方案

得奇码的双语言支持功能已扩展到31种语言

瑞典隆德和加拿大艾伯塔省卡尔加里,2006年2月9日讯 - 全球领先的智能界面解决方案提供商字源公司今天公开发布了其先进的得奇码(Decuma®)手写识别产品的最新版本。得奇码V4是一款全新的带预测功能强大的个人笔输入解决方案,目前已经可供OEM嵌入。该解决方案增加了文本预测功能,其中包括单词自动完成功能,并增强了手写输入的个性化功能。该解决方案还将屡获殊荣的得奇码软件的语言数据库增加了一倍,达到了31种语言,其中包括复杂的中文和日文字体。在2006年2月13日至16日巴塞罗那举办的3GSM World Congress上,字源公司将显示其得奇码V4产品,位置在第二展厅E40展位。

装备了字源公司世界级预测技术的得奇码V4将给移动设备用户的笔输入带来革命性的变化。除了字母语言外,字源的预测专业技术还扩展到了得奇码中文版,可以实现词组级的联想和拼音输入转换。该系统专为移动功能设计,特别适用于外观小巧的设备,如手机、手持游戏控制台以及其它终端,这些设备一般都会有书写效果差和抖动的缺点。得奇码可以识别完全自然形态的大小写字母、数字、符号和标点,用户甚至可以同时用两种语言输入文本而无需切换输入模式。

字源公司首席运营官兼首席技术官Milos Djokovic说道:“对有些用户来说,移动设备上的标准手写功能从来就不怎么好用。传统的方法太笨拙,处理过程太慢,太麻烦。配置了字源公司特有的文本预测功能后,得奇码在笔输入的速度和易用性方面提供了全新的体验。”

Djokovic又补充说,从设备OEM的立场来看,得奇码V4专为支持OEM继续使用其当前的笔输入用户界面而设计,并且可以方便地添加对预测功能的支持。得奇码也因其快速方便的部署或替代现有的传统手写识别解决方案,实现了即时入市的要求。

得奇码支持的语言包括南非芬兰语、中文、克罗地亚语、捷克语、丹麦语、荷兰语、英语(英国和美洲)、爱沙尼亚语、芬兰语、法语(欧洲和加拿大)、德语、匈牙利语、冰岛语、印度尼西亚语、意大利语、日语、拉脱维亚语、立陶宛语、马来语、挪威语、波兰语、葡萄牙语(欧洲和巴西)、罗马尼亚语、塞尔维亚语、斯洛伐克语、西班牙语(欧洲和拉丁美洲)、斯瓦希里语、瑞典语、他加禄语和土耳其语。
