This week, we had our first success with keystroke interception, which enables us to work on the next component of our project. Keystroke interception involves obtaining raw keystroke data, including the time the key was pressed down and the time it rebounded. By obtaining raw keystroke data, we are able to remove the requirement of using a pseudo jaws, or at least reduce the need. In the next weeks, we will be using JAWS in combination with our web server, and may need to implement additional hotkeys so that we can track the user’s location and provide relevant recommendations. We may be meeting with a graduate student of Dr. Villanueva in the next one or two weeks to work on developing a better intent recognition algorithm. Currently, we do not think it is feasible to complete intent recognition by the end of IPPD, however, we believe it is possible to outline an algorithm in depth that can be implemented by a future team.
