Sadly, not much. The Datahands[1] are long gone. The keyboards I bought for their n-key rollover for Plover[2] are there but I can’t stenography. The Cykey chording keyboard[3] gone I think. The software I made to use a normal keyboard as chording input like that, unused. https://talonvoice.com/ https://talonvoice.com/ free edition couldn’t make any sense of my accent I think. The webcam from when multitouch was new and could be done in software with the shadows of your hand on paper and camera, I still have but don’t use. The Remarkable tablet and pen mostly unused. Going back a lot further the infra red receiver and software to use a standard TV style remote control, nope.
I never got the Griffin PowerMate or the Leap motion or the new LED button boards aimed at streamers.
Just AutoHotkey survives. And it’s sad, computers could be so much more but I guess I don’t have much use for anything else.

- kjs3 4y agoI like my USB Griffin PowerMate. Shame Griffin basically dropped all support for it.
- argiopetech 4y agoHave you considered ASETNIOP [0]? It offers stationary hands benefits like Datahands or Cykey without the complexities of full-blown steno. G Heavy Industries formerly built the Ginny, a keyboard designed to run ASETNIOP out of the box, but the owner appears to have had a rough few years and shuttered the business. A possible alternative to a used Ginny might be this open source system [1]. Still working on my steno (with a StenoMod). It's taken some time, but I'm finally at the point where I can derive more satisfaction from success than my aggravation due to lack of speed.
