I have a renewed interest in fully-split keyboards because of the idea of using a VR headset instead of monitors for my day job - I currently just use a goldtouch partially-split/tilt keyboard which is inexpensive and works incredibly well at a desk. This opens up the possibility of moving away from a chair/desk combo to all sorts of varied positions - standing, sitting cross-legged on a cushion, various floor stretch positions as in [0], lying down, lounging on the couch, etc. I bought a quest 2 off craigslist for cheap to test this. I'm imagining that a split keyboard with some kind of integrated pointing device (tiny joystick? or just get very good at keyboard-only navigation) that mounts to your wrists or something would be ideal. Anyone have experience with trying different setups of this type? A quick youtube search brings up a custom-built leg-attached keyboard [1] but nothing commercial yet.
