Wrt to the wristband, the concept and hardware is simple enough that were it not for Facebook nightmare lawyers and patents it could be a cheap maker community staple. Under Facebook, it will fail - nobody wants Facebook tracking literally everything they type.

- ipsum2 5y agoHuh? This technology (using electromyography to detect hand/arm movements) has been around for at least 6 years (https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/myo-gesture-control-armband https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/myo-gesture-control-armband) but has not become a "community staple". The company producing the armband actually shelved the product because it was so bad and focused their efforts on AR glasses instead.
