Seven-segment input 7SI: evaluation expérimentale dans des situations dégradées de mobilité

This article briefly presents our new gestural system for mobile text entry, called Seven-Segment Input 7SI. It is based on crossing character glyphs, and giving an intuitive representation of letters and numbers through a basic configuration of seven segments. We describe an experimental evaluation of 7SI system, conducted in two different contexts: desktop and mobility. The first results show that user achieved an input rate of 20.09 WPM. Moreover, 7SI system is natural and easy to learn, subject accomplished all of the testing sessions without needing the character chart.
