This seems like it could go well with AR glasses. Could even be extended to scan the mouth and recognize subvocalizations so you could talk to it without emitting sound or opening your mouth. I.e. a general purpose input device.

#13Such a simple, feasible, and useful idea. I'm surprised this hasn't been a thing for a decade already.

#17This sounds amazing for accessibility - for anyone more familiar than I am, is this true? Or are there major drawbacks?

#18I played around with Tobii eye-tracking hardware half a decade ago and was pretty amazed by its precision. I understand now it also has Glasses (vs. the model I tried, a tracker you put below your monitor usually). Marrying eye-tracking glasses with this mouthpad might be a winning combination: eye-tracking being the mouse to navigate in xy-space, and mouthpad for clicks.
Kudos to this group for putting out a finished product though, can't wait to see it used and iterated more out in the field.
