Septambic Chording Keyer

Have you ever wished you could graft a text input device directly onto your arm? Well, this is about as close as it gets without surgery... Inspired by Greg Priest-Dorman's Chorder wiki, I'm using a handheld chorded keyboard based on Spaceman Spiff's Chording Keyboard Experiment (SpiffChorder) with some earlier influence from Steve Mann's septambic keyer. The subpages linked below provide explicit documentation of my efforts and, in combination with the excellent documentation on Greg's and Spiff's sites, should be more than sufficient for creating one of your own. Photos and designs published in this section are licensed under the terms of the GPL (3.0), same as the SpiffChorder project itself (since they could be considered derivative works).

Monocular Headmount Display

As I begin work on a wearable display, I'll flesh out this section. Here are some interesting links for components I'm considering:

Right now I just go everywhere with an Asus Eee PC netbook running Debian GNU/Linux, but intend to transition soon to a low-power single-board computer. Some links for reference:

Portable Power Supply and Charger

Portable power will also be critical:
