Abstract : In recent years, there is a rapid increase in communication on social networking services (SNSs) or messenger applications. Such communication is prevailing for, for example, from everyday casual content to a wide range of fields such as education and business. It can be said that such communication has become indispensable to people’s lives already In addition to characters, sharing images as media called stickers, it is common to see scenes of interaction. Visual information has more informative than character information (linguistic information), and visual information is easiest way to transmit. However, Focusing on the use of smartphones in recent years, the use of the previous-generation personal computer influences a lot. One example is a keyboard of a smartphone for text entry. The QWERTY keyboard was designed for typewriters, and also people are familiar with this tool on PC, however, it is not optimized for smartphones. This input method is based on characters (alphabet), and not for the visual communication age. In this research, we present relevant examples of the input interfaces of smartphones and suggest the concept of simple stroke communication tool by which the users can communicate with each other intuitively.
