Abstract
Interactive data input can include determining a plurality of character subgroups that each comprise at least one follow-on character that, based on a predetermined rule, can follow a preceding character from a predetermined set of characters that form character strings corresponding to a word within a predefined vocabulary. Two or more of the plurality of character subgroups, each of which correspond to a character selected by a user from among the predetermined set of characters, can be presented concurrently to the user in response to an electronically sensed user movement. A character string can be generated based on the user-selected character and at least one follow-on character associated with the user-selected character.
