The chorded keyboard idea is definitely interesting but voice recognition is what most people will use.
People don't always want to simply type fast. Imagine other use case cases, like designers, for example. They might be using a Wacom tablet and need to reach for the keyboard to "create a new layer", "change font to San Francisco", "50x100 rectangle", etc. Wouldn't voice recognition be much easier?
Here's an interesting study on chorded keyboards:

- morinted 10y agoThanks for that. Yes, speech control seems really natural for certain tasks, like a painting program especially where you use few and distinct words. The VR painting programs come to mind. That case study interests me, but it really glazes over stenotype and palantype. I'll email Bill and see if I can get a discussion going. Cheers
