SEATTLE-Tegic Communications said it signed a licensing agreement with Fujitsu Network Communications, in which Fujitsu will incorporate Tegic’s T9 intelligent text input technology into its newest Code Division Multiple Access handsets, the Personna Series.
Unveiled in August, T9 employs an intelligent software protocol enabling users to enter text as they would on a desktop keyboard-just one key press per letter. Although each key can be interpreted in multiple ways, the T9 algorithm uses an internal linguistic database to automatically scan possible variations and determine the correct word instantaneously, said Tegic.
