Design Patent

Fastest, seamless and easy typing in Marathi 

The Story 

It was Jan 2007 and my son's first birthday. We decided to celebrate it at home by calling some friends over. I wanted to print his name in Marathi Devnagari Script and I simply didn't know how to do it with my computer. I was ashamed that I work in the best Usability Consultancy like HFI and has almost 8 years of IT experience and I don't know how to do it. 

Although we printed his name in English and celebrated his birthday, the incident came as a blow to me emotionally. Was it only me or others also faced the same problem? questions after questions came to my mind and I kept looking for answers. What I found out was astonishing. 

For the next 6 years I spent in finding answers and doing research to come up with a solution for all Indians . My dream was and still is that all Indians should have their mother tongue printed on their keyboards

The research done and a solution is a foundational and still retains its claim of fastest and easiest way to input Indian script. Since I have applied for a patent, I am happy to share all my work and documents with anyone who wants to go through it.
