DEVICE FOR ENTERING INFORMATION Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC G06F3/23 G06F3/42 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: device for inputting information comprises a panel, first and second keys, fourteen emitters and fourteen radiation receivers, which form respective longitudinal and transverse optical axes and provide for the formation twenty working zones each key, which can affect the working body on the surface, so and outside keys at a distance that allows radiation working body overlap when they are pressed, and a controller whose output is the output of the apparatus, wherein upon exposure and the keys and/or on the optical axis of the program controller as receivers of radiation all open and closed optical axes allows programming the corresponding codes, and if the working body exposed to several workspaces the controller program allocates one work area located closer to the center and the top of the device according to the state of the respective radiation receivers.

EFFECT: increasing the speed of entering information of the device in the user's hands, by reducing the distance to which the finger should be moved, reducing the size and simplifying the device.
