VirtualKeyboard provides an on-screen keyboard designed to provide point-and-click typing capabilities via pointing devices such as a mouse, head pointer, trackball and more.
VirtualKeyboard is intended to be used by disabled persons but it can also prove useful if you need to teach children to write, to prepare kiosk environments or other activities that require visual explanations.
