This would be awesome for people who are disabled. Voice input is still a pain and only works with a limited number of applications. If you could somehow switch between keyboard and tracking for the mouse pointer, this could give full use of a computer to many people.

The android keyboard version of Dasher is available in the F-droid repo: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;f-droid.org&#x2F;app&#x2F;dasher.android" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;f-droid.org&#x2F;app&#x2F;dasher.android</a>

This is really awesome. It looks hard, but it isn&#x27;t. Here&#x27;s a talk from 2007 that explains it well <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=wpOxbesRNBc" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=wpOxbesRNBc</a>

Wow, this looks really cool. Looks like something you could do while exercising, like with a stationary bike or treadmill.

Appears to be really hard to pull off. How many hours of training does a person need to achieve let&#x27;s say 20wpm?
