For visual search I would disregard keyboards entirely and go alphabetical: A b c d E f g h I j k l m n O p q r s t U v x y z.

  Arranged in a clock face perhaps?

    Something like the radial keyboard used in Steam's big picture mode could be really useful here. It would reduce potential error surface by quite a bit.

    Good idea, it would make a more memorable position for every letter.

  I tried to eye out "Batmobile" and had a surprisingly hard time compared to Colemak or QWERTY layouts. (I tested by making fake layouts in Photoshop.) The issue being that while I can certainly find the letters when they are alphabetical - clusters of commonly used letters are further apart. Having "th" and "ng" visually close to each other aids a lot.
