Abstract

Examples relate to improving typing accuracy using a virtual keyboard. One example enables detection that a key of the virtual keyboard has been pressed and identification of a finger of a user used to press the key of the virtual keyboard. The key that was intended to be pressed may be determined based on the determined key, the finger of the user, and a mapping of finger placement and keys of the virtual keyboard. Functionality associated with pressing the intended key may be performed.
