A one-handed mobile keyboard that stays under the fingers.
Handex forms the keys to the finger actions. A finger does not move to another seat for the next character, and you do not look down at the hand to find it.
It is a proof of concept. On the inventor’s own tests, with cheap 6 mm buttons and a rough chassis, standard sentences and punctuation come out at about 20 words per minute. That is one person’s number, not a lab study. The product is not in its final form.

- Researchers who catalog how people type in headsets.
What this is not
It is not the first one-handed keyboard. Chorded keysets go back at least to Douglas Engelbart’s 1968 demo, and several mobile and wearable typers already exist. Handex is the gripped form that shapes the switches to the finger actions. It is not a hearing aid and not a captioning tool.
