| An analysis of the layout and usage of the so-called tera-keyboard: https://scifiinterfaces.com/2013/07/24/the-secret-of-the-ter... Worth a read, notably the estimated achieved speed in comparison with a human brain. I won't spoil you, but it allowing chords has... consequences. The article also asks how a human brain could process such interaction so fast; well in GITS canon cybernetised brains are augmented/enhanced beyond normal human abilities. The article also raises the question of why this and not a direct connection. I would yet again argue the possible security implications, notably in the context of the Puppet Master being around. But it could also be a gracefully degrading interface, and a less cybernetised person may still be able to operate it with normal hands, or even a non cybenetised one, albeit of course at a massively reduced speed. IOW ed is the standard text editor / it's a Unix system, I know this. After all, what better interface than text via stdin/out to scale from normal hands/eyeballs to max line rate? EDIT: the first comment actually raises both interop and security concerns! |
