My-T-Soft® for Windows

On screen Keyboard User Interface

for Mobile, Rugged, Tablet, and Touch screen Computer Systems

My-T-Soft® Professional includes IMG's Build-A-Board Editor & Online Layout Database with thousands of layouts for the ultimate On-screen Keyboard User Interface.

Since 1993, IMG's on screen keyboard utilities have been the choice of thousands of OEM's, Systems Integrators, and hundreds of thousands of EndUsers worldwide.

IMG is the largest publisher of on screen keyboard and touch screen user interfaces worldwide, and the only one who's products are recommended or bundled by major automation, industrial, mobile, tablet, and touch screen based OEM system mfg's, because of the high level of functionality, reliability, and security our products provide!

With Support For: Windows 11 / 10 / 8.1 / 8 & 7 (32 & 64 bit), XP, 2000, CE, Embedded, Terminal Services, Android, Linux, & Mac OSX

Whether we're part of an Automotive, Food, Mining, or Industrial controller, or the interface to Aircraft diagnostics, a Missile system, MRI Scanner, or a Fleet GPS system, we help run some of the most advanced and mission critical systems in the world.

Perhaps that's why we're The World Standard in On screen Keyboard Software!

The My-T-Soft Family of On screen Keyboard and Touch screen software user interface utilities completes the evolution of the user-interface.

Written at the same level as the operating system, they offer system manufacturers, software publishers, integrators, and endusers infinitely sizeable and programmable, US & International on screen keyboard layouts, macro capabilities, network logon security, total operator/user control, and full integratation with any programming environment.

Most importantly My-T-Soft provides the user with a 'heads up display' interface (found in fighter planes, helicopters, tanks, and futuristic automobiltes). Its principal objective is to keep the users focus and concentration centered in one place. My-T-Soft uses that concept to reduce the visual re-focusing and re-positioning, caused by the heads up and down motion of going from screen to keyboard to screen, for easier user interaction.

To add custom software input panels, keypads, or user interfaces to My-T-Soft, please see IMG's Build-A-Board Designer Tool.

My-T-Soft is Ready-To-Run and includes over 200 international layouts with 3D Key display and infinite sizing! The Logon option allows any pointing device (mouse, tablet, touchscreen, etc) to logon to Windows and enables the evolution beyond the physical keyboard! The feature list includes all of the requested options found in previous versions of My-T-Soft, My-T-Touch, and My-T-Pen, including the ability to re-map keys, add Custom Logos, Supervisor / Operator modes, and hundreds of other options.

By allowing systems to operate without the need for a physical keyboard, external templates, membranes, or buttons, My-T-Soft can provide the finishing touch on sealed systems that require a touchscreen keyboard for user input. It also offers more secure user input control, can "hide" when not in use, and is virtually indestructible (unlike physical keyboards).
