Abstract
Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods of providing sequential two-handed touch typing. In aspects, a client device may provide a touch-based input receiving application. The client device may include one or more sensors operable to detect the approach of a user's hand or touch-based tool. In response to a detection, the client device may determine input interaction information, such as aspects of the hand (e.g., right or left) and/or finger(s) being used. The input interaction information may be used to detect candidate keys and to provide a keyboard (or a portion of a keyboard) based thereon. In aspects, the provided keyboard or keyboard portion may be altered in response to a subsequent detection.
