Abstract
One or more sensors to determine a location of an input. The data related to the location of the input, such as a character, may be displayed on an application on a display device. In addition, data that is related to the proximate areas of the location of the input may also be displayed, such as surrounding characters. If the user desires to enter the character into the application, the displayed character may be selected. If the user does not wish to select the character, the user may move the input to a new location and data related to the new location may be displayed on the application on the display device and the data related to the new location may be selected and entered in the application.
