Abstract
To develop an Application to visualize the key board of computer with the concept of image processing. The virtual keyboard should be accessible and functioning. The keyboard must give input to computer. With the help of camera, image of keyboard will be fetched. The typing will be captured by camera, as we type on cardboard simply drawn on paper. Camera will capture finger movement while typing. So basically this is giving the virtual keyboard. As the technology advances, more and more systems are introduced which will look after the users comfort. Few years before hard switches were used as keys. Traditional QWERTY keyboards are bulky and offer very little in terms of enhancements. Now-a-days soft touch keypads are much popular in the market. These keypads give an elegant look and a better feel. Currently keyboards are static and their interactivity and usability would increase if they were made dynamic and adaptable. Various on-screen virtual keyboards are available but it is difficult to accommodate full sized keyboard on the screen as it creates hindrance to see the documents being typed. Virtual Keyboard has no physical appearance. Although other forms of Virtual Keyboards exist; they provide solutions using specialized devices such as 3D cameras. Due to this, a practical implementation of such keyboards is not feasible. The Virtual Keyboard that we propose uses only a standard web camera, with no additional hardware. Thus we see that the new technology always has more Benefits and is more userfriendly.
