I've got ALS (MND). Completely agree UX is the problem, gazing at a keyboard on a screen designed to stop multiple keys clogging (QWERTY) feels wrong.
Some ideas
- gesture based eye movements, maybe two sweeps on a nine by nine grid, which map directly to phonemes
- enormous 4k 75inch tv with thousands of words or ideograms or phrases
- "writing" with your eyes then doing line to text AI to clean up
- standardish keyboard with massive LLM prediction and clean UX for autocomplete/throwaway with branching options
Ideas are cheap so no clue if these work. Also Tobi split between cheap good non-hackable gaming eyetracking and medical products doesn't help. Finally, with ALS you want to communicate about different things and are more tired.
