Tap Launches Second-Generation Wearable Keyboard with Gesture Controls
- catalogia 7y ago> "All of the modes work through different hand gestures, and the Tap Strap 2 is designed to anticipate what the person wearing the device wants to do. When a hand is horizontal, the Tap Strap 2 works in keyboard mode for typing via different finger taps. When the thumb is resting on a surface, it switches over to mouse mode, and when the hand is rotated vertically, it swaps over into AirMouse Mode." I've not tried it (yet) but I'm pretty skeptical of such a feature. Half the appeal of a wearable keyboard, to me, is the ability to type while in a posture that would otherwise be poorly suited for typing (e.g. my hands hanging down at my sides.) Also if the auto-magical mode switching works as well as other auto-magical features in other products, it will probably change modes when you aren't intending it which for a keyboard could be very frustrating.
