Unlock Your Typing Potential: Tips and Tricks for Using a Physical Keyboard
Accurately typing with a physical Bluetooth keyboard - QWERTY or Braille for blind people can take some practice, but there are several strategies that can help improve typing accuracy:
- Familiarise yourself with the keyboard: Spend some time getting familiar with the layout of the keyboard. Run your fingers over the keys to learn where each key is located.
- Use touch typing techniques: Touch typing involves typing without looking at the keyboard. To do this, place your fingers on the starting keys (ASDF for QWERTY keyboards & Dots 1 & 4 for braille keyboards) and use the tactile bumps to help guide your fingers to the correct position.
- Use keyboard shortcuts: Many devices and software programs have keyboard shortcuts that can help you navigate and perform tasks more quickly. Familiarise yourself with these shortcuts to save time and improve accuracy. We do not recommend starting with all the keyboard shortcuts. That could take time and overtime, you will be able to memorise and use the shortcuts.
- Adjust the keyboard settings: Many devices allow you to adjust the keyboard settings to your liking. You may be able to adjust the key press rate or enable settings which can help you type more accurately.
- Practice regularly: The more you use the keyboard, the more comfortable and accurate you will become. Set aside time to practise typing and try to incorporate typing into your daily routine.
Overall, typing accurately with a physical Bluetooth keyboard for blind people requires practice and patience. With time and dedication, you can improve your accuracy and become more efficient at typing.
