Bluetooth? More like Bluetongue.
that the San Francisco-based firm Augmental Technologies has invented a Bluetooth mouse designed to be worn inside a user's mouth., the device — which is essentially worn like a mouthguard — is dubbed the MouthPad, and was created as a means to help paraplegics better navigate their computers, smartphones, tablets, and other devices. The trackpad is tongue-sensitive, with right-clicks and left-clicks performed by a suck-in gesture and a tongue press, respectively.
"Our goal," it continues, "is to provide everyone with more intuitive ways to interact with computing systems." Also per its site, the MouthPad is specifically designed to have a minimal impact on a user's speech — an important feature not only for anyone needing to speak to those around them, but for folks who might be relying on additional voice recognition software to navigate daily life as well.
