That's right I saw that. Didn't have time to add it to text yet though. I did consider it for an implementation. Seems like Jacob Wobbrock went on to become quite influential after his work on this.

Yes the author of edgewrite talks extensivly about grafiti but claims some advantages over that system. I'd like to do a web demoable implementation of edgewrite but it's kind of hard for me to get a hand on a Palm Pilot. Have yo

This is the reasoning behind the project. In short I'd say that with VR around the corner and touchscreen everywhere but no practical way of doing work as such on smarthones tablets the way we look at text input should be reconsidered

Perhaps give me a hand researching text input, I'm starting to gather a rather large source of ideas to be implemented. Fun work really allows you to think outside of the box. Spans all the way from UI-design down to system calls into

Challenging for sure but then again if a properly implemented theory based on state of the art research is implemented there is a chance that a better solution is made as well. One not burdened by backwards compability. Think of it thiis wa

Yes, some solution like that would help i believe. Even though that I'd say that what would be the most practical solution would be to use off the shelf solutions. To fully give the wrists freedom of movement why not look at the knuckl

The most important things I've come up with while researching this area is the following. The error recovery process on a failure in the system is simply to bad. It takes quite a long time to correct an error in speec recognition. So t

Would you consider using a gamepad a possible solution? Maybe specialized hardware further down the road but ATM I think that the market forces have optimized the devices sufficiently. The reason why I am asking is that I'm doing some

Thank you :D Couldn't have written it better myself. Maybe there is an minimal test case that could demonstrate deeper understanding. Sort of a fizz-buzz for AI, to separate the parrots from the thinkers so to speak. Food for thought.
