Abstract:
A system and keypad interface is disclosed that allows users to communicate with non-verbal cues. Embodiments include an optimal key pattern(s) to minimize human time using the control interface. Aspects of the system block the natural reading process and rely on pattern recognition, thus users can enter and respond to messages more quickly without the cognitive upset of reading messages that rely solely on left to right or vice versa. The grouping of the keys optimizes or minimizes the time a human uses the control system based on how the human brain interprets visual information. Some embodiments include messages delivered by tones associated with button presses. The tones may provide a non-verbal communication without the recipient needing to see the panels.

Claim (Index 1):
A system, comprising:\n a plurality of keypad interface panels, each panel including,\n a speaker; \n a memory storage module including stored electronic files of tones, a memory storage module including stored electronic files of tones, \n a plurality of grouped sets of touch-enabled keys, each set of keys in a group is arranged in a vertical grouping as defined by a common function, wherein\n a first group of keys is designated to represent pre-set persons within an office setting, \n a second group of keys is designated to represent a predesignated action within the office setting, \n a third group of keys is designated to represent a location in the office setting, and \n when a first selected key within the first group of keys, a second selected key within the second group of keys, and a third selected key within the third group of keys are pressed, emits, by the speaker, a selected tone from the stored electronic files of tones and represents an audible and non-verbal form of communication between the plurality of keypad interface panels identifying a selected person, a selected action for the selected person, and a selected location for the selected person to perform the selected action; \n \n one or more communication cables connecting the plurality of keypad interface panels; and \n a central switchbox controller configured to control the receipt and transmission of signals between the plurality of keypad interface panels through the one or more communication cables.
