Nuance T9 Trace Continuous Touch Input announced

Nuance Communications has announced Nuance T9 Trace, a continuous touch input technology designed specifically for touchscreen phones. With Nuance T9 Trace, consumers simply glide their finger from one letter to another on their touchscreen QWERTY or touchscreen 12-key keypads, spelling words quickly with no stylus or other implement needed.

Nuance XT9 truly enhances the Nuance T9 Trace consumer experience, giving users the ability to input text even faster and easier with words and phrases appearing as consumers trace. And Nuance XT9’s word prediction and error correction capabilities deliver faster input with superior word-completion accuracy. Additionally, Nuance T9 Trace allows users to seamlessly switch back and forth between typing and tracing at any time, providing even more control and ease of use.
