>Professionals who use their hands a lot, like mechanics or surgeons, have shown interest in the device. The company has also talked with astronauts who would like to try it out at the International Space Station.
I'd be that guy using it public transit during winter because I don't want to take my gloves off.
I remember "mentally designing" something like this when I was a teen. I had a weird mouth guard with a flat surface that covered back of upper and lower teeth that I would glide my tongue on, pretending to be a cursor, and then click on my canine tips together for left and right click because I thought that would be more precise. Now I occasionally think about eye tracking to move cursor and teeth clicking to tap.
In case you're not joking about public transit and gloves, you can get gloves with pads on the fingertips that allow you to use touch screens. And if your gloves don't have it, there are pads you can stick on or liquids you can apply to make existing gloves touch screen compatible.
Not joking. Touchscreen friendly gloves mistaps too frequently, especially thumbs in one hand mode - essential when standing in transit. My solution is pair of thin, very well form fitting glove liners underneath gloves. Or using a stylus. Both of which requires two hands. Hence very specific day dreaming about controlling phone with eyes and mouth.
I will give the liquid a try though. I have some nice fit old leather gloves that aren't touch screen compatible.
