The Panini Keypad is a typing technology which has been developed by Luna Ergonomics, a subsidiary of Noida. It is an application that offers single key press input in Indian language on mobile.[1][2] So far, it supports Hindi, Bengali, Assamese,[3] Telugu, Marathi, Tamil, Gujarati,[4] Kannada, Malayalam and Punjabi.[5][6]
The technology is based on CleverTexting; patented predictive texting software which creates an ergonomic dynamic virtual keypad using statistical predictions based on corpora linguistics.[jargon] [7][8] The software uses a form of compression to increase the number of characters in each text message to 210. The Panini keyboard can also be used on laptops, tablets and desktop computers.[9]
