I don’t have any physical disabilities, but I am still interested in something like this as may help be smoke less and up my productivity.
I am curious what this would be like pairing it with an eye tracker, so you could look at a particular area then as soon as you move your tongue slightly that’s when the cursor appears where you are looking at. So that the cursor never feels in the way or something you are dragging, and even less movement with the tongue. I’d give a regular mouse up for that in a heartbeat.
But yeah, congrats in seeing your idea out - impressive stuff :)
Thanks for your message and interest in the MouthPad^! In the future, we plan to integrate various health-tracking capabilities, including gas sensing. This could help monitor smoking habits and might assist in efforts to smoke less.
Your use case sounds entirely feasible and promising. We're also looking at the possibility of coupling eye tracking for cursor movement with the MouthPad^ trackpad, functioning as a gestural trackpad. This setup would allow for left clicks, right clicks, swipes, click-and-drag actions, and other gestures. It's an exciting prospect that could significantly improve the eye-tracking experience by overcoming the typically slow response of dwell-based clicking.
Stay tuned for these developments, and thanks for recognizing our work – it’s greatly appreciated!
