There is no better keyboard and mouse than no keyboard and mouse. Does anyone knows a solution that allows to provide input without the need to move your arms and/or fingers? I have heard about brainwave detection but apparently it's hard to learn, slow and have a high latency. Any ideas?

If you don't mind using other limbs, there's a whole ton of products aimed at musicians who have their hands full but still want to be able to manipulate another device. For example, the organ, guitar pedals, and much, much more. Big variety of pedal setups generally, but musicians have been dealing with the "no hands" input problem for a very long time.

There are also a number of existing eye tracking input systems, but I think that kinda sucks / is limiting.

I'm aware of tongue-activated joysticks for people that are unable to move their bodies. Maybe look into assistive devices of that variety.

That is one amazing video and an utterly amazing musician. I had no idea such an instrument exists. Really, you kind of blew up my musical world. That definitely lands on my Things That Went Right Today list. Thanks!!

I really wish I had the capacity & skills to take on some hobbyist eye tracking efforts. I think a huge amount of work could be done by looking, or looking with some modifiers.

At some point I need to start doing some machine learning stuff. I'm intimidated to get started, and it feels like there's better tooling emerging. Also, I don't want to go Nvidia so it feels like I'm starting out in Hard mode. But some day I need to pick something like Keras and do some basic ML image processing or what not with my Radeon rx580, if it can.

There's many accessibility focused input devices that lets you use your mouth/tongue. There's also foot pedals, voice activation software etc.

There's eviacam, though it's code rotting:(
