WordLogic Advances Asian Language Prediction
WordLogic's WordChunking(TM) technology changes the game for Asian language text input
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - July 16, 2013) - WordLogic (OTCQB:WLGC), the predictive intelligence technology company that creates patented solutions for mobiles, tablets and desktops has completed the development of an advanced Korean language predictive keyboard for the Asian marketplace.
WordLogic's unique and patented WordChunking™ technology allows complex Asian characters to be rapidly constructed from their base characters. When combined with WordLogic's unique phrase prediction technology it allows the user to build words and phrases at speeds never before possible.
Building Korean words using current mobile phone keyboards is a tedious process that requires pressing between 2 to 4 keys to assemble a single ideogram character. For example, the phrase "How are you?" typically requires hitting 17 keys to complete the sentence. Using the powerful patented WordChunking™ technology, which is only available in the iKnowU™ keyboard, makes the process virtually effortless. The same phrase is reduced to only 6 taps, making it almost 3 times faster than the default keyboards currently available.
WordLogic's advancement with the Korean language has created new opportunities for applications of their existing patented technologies that can handle the composition of complex characters found in languages such as Korean, Japanese and Chinese. These versions of IKnowU will be intuitive and efficient, giving users an experience unlike any other available in the market.
The Korean iKnowU keyboard is currently in beta testing and will be released to WordLogic customers in the third quarter of 2013.
