As we know about Stephen Hawking, a great scientist who unable to speak or write his feelings or research works. But, we want his ideas to make this world great. So many researchers want his ideas to implement in the real time world.
Now great news to all over the world and importantly for the Stephen Hawking's lovers. I.e, SwiftKey has been a part of an ambitious project to enhance the communication system used by world renowned scientist professor Stephen Hawking.
How they implemented....????
SwiftKey is trying Stephen Hawking to write and communicate from last two years. And SwiftKey collaborated with Intel.
Hawking has motor neurone disease and as such is only able to communicate by using a small sensor which is activated by a muscle in his cheek.
This is integrated into his current system which is used to type characters and numbers on his keyboard and predict whole words rather than just characters.
Language model :
SwiftKey built a personal " language model " for professor Stephen Hawking based on his expensive works - including documents not published in the public domain.
Hawking is an excellent, accurate speller and uses his system to write long form lectures and books. The aim was to enable him to write and speak with greater ease for longer periods and minimise typos.
SwiftKey Engineers :
As how we interested in Stephen Hawking, we need to know the engineers who developed this amazing model. They are :

- Stephen Spencer
- Joe Osborne ( team leader )
- James Hay

Engineer's feelings :
Joe Osborne, SwiftKey's SDK leader who led this project said, " it has been a wonderful experience to work so closely with professor Stephen Hawking and my team on this project, integrating our technology into his communication system.
As a team it makes us incredibly proud that our technology is being used to enhance communication in its broadest sense, and we believe that our work with Intel and professor Stephen Hawking and my team will provide insights that are able to shape and improve their work in future "
Add more story.... Or any ideas... Please comment below....
This is really nice info bro.
ReplyDeleteIt would be a grand success if they can implement the ideas of Stephen. Thanks for sharing it Gopi !!
Thanks,

Thank u Mr. Ashutosh jha... God is crazy... Because, the people who had knowledge are unable to survive or express their views... But people who doesn't have any knowledge are wondering on the roads by commenting on others.....
