The new products have a totally new interface and unprecedented features that allow people to universally and dramatically use software and Internet applications by just drawing symbols. The new line of Sensiva products provide users with a consistent interface that significantly improves the user experience and enhances the speed and pleasure of Web navigation and use of all software applications. One of the key features enables users to access their emails, trading accounts and other websites without having to type or remember individual passwords. Most people using web-based emails take time to access and get their emails manually, several times a day. With Sensiva, drawing a symbol lets users skip all steps of login because Sensiva stores all users sign-in names and passwords of different websites in one place. For example, users simply draw an "e" on the screen to get their emails almost instantly. The new feature also offers users a powerful enhancement for search engine. With Sensiva, users get results of searching the Internet by just drawing a symbol. For example, just highlighting the word "San Francisco" and drawing a "b" will allow you to go to the right page at your favorite book website to find a book about the city. Each product has different features to meet different user needs. "Sensiva Pro" is integrated with all the features in one package. "Sensiva Navigator" is aimed at providing the new benefits focusing on Web Navigation such as instant search results and instant access to secure websites and emails, without having to enter passwords. "Sensiva Commander" is focused on unifying inconsistent applications, such as executing commands, launching applications and writing signatures by just drawing symbols. No matter what application users are in, they can use the same symbols to execute the same actions, such as a "Z" for zoom in all graphic programs. "The brand new software will play a vital role in the user interface world." David Dupouy, Sensiva, Inc.'s chief executive officer said. "Sensiva is committed and focused on improving the user experience" Sensiva's technology is already part of products of world leading companies including Casio, a world leader in consumer electronics; Wacom, market leader in development and manufacture of graphic tablets; Synaptics, leader in development and manufacture of touchpads for notebook computers; and Kanitech International A/S in Denmark, the developer of a cordless pen that works in place of a mouse.
