Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: a keyboard that comprises right and left optical sensors that sense optical information; assignment circuitry that configures the right and left optical sensors as right hand dominant based on sensed optical information received from the right optical sensor that corresponds to an assignment criterion or as left hand dominant based on sensed optical information received from the left optical sensor that corresponds to the assignment criterion and that assigns, for a right hand dominant configuration, the right optical sensor to be a primary sensor and the left optical sensor to be a modifier sensor and, for a left hand dominant configuration, the left optical sensor to be the primary sensor and the right optical sensor to be the modifier sensor; and control circuitry to output one or more commands according to a command correspondence based on sensed input optical information from the primary sensor and sensed input optical information from the modifier sensor; wherein the command correspondence is substantially the same for the right hand dominant configuration and for the left hand dominant configuration.
