One of our goals at AlphaGrip is to enable high speed input on a tablet computer or smartphone. Then you will be able to type 60+ words per minute while your standing, walking, sitting on a park bench, or lying on a blanket at the beach. In other words, you won't have to get to a flat, stationary surface to create content (or play desktop-quality, 10-finger control video games). Now that you've asked that question, however, I can see how my demo is a far cry from our vision.

The point is that you can type faster on an AlphaGrip while you're standing up than you can with any other input device.

The fastest speed I've achieved is 80 wpm, but my average is about 60. I can type 70-80 wpm on a keyboard, but the tradeoff is worth it to me. You may want to ask other, less biased AlphaGrip users what they think. A link to the AlphaGrip Google Group is on our website under Support/Discussion Group.

Okay, but it would be neat if there were a wireless device to attach lips/jaws--just some little electrodes set into a light mesh (stylish) design that would fit over the bottom of the face. Then, the electrodes would "read" the positions/actions of the facial muscles/tongue, etc as the dictator forms words ("pronounced" without actually speaking/using their voice). This, of course, is a variation of speech recognition (from another angle), but I do wonder if anybody is working on this?

Interesting idea. Are you aware of any products that utilize highly sensitive electrodes/sensors to detect muscle movement for other applications?
