TypAir straps a keyboard to your wrist so you can type without talking

TypAir straps a keyboard to your wrist so you can type without talking. That's the whole pitch, and honestly it's the kind of quiet rebellion against the noise of smart glasses that makes me want to see how far it gets. MindRove's prototype uses gesture-based Bluetooth input, so you're not speaking messages aloud or fumbling for a second device. You just move your fingers and the words appear. It's early. It's weird. And it asks a great question: why should typing require a surface? The gesture recognition has to be razor-sharp to work in real life, but the ambition is exactly the kind of narrow, slippery detail Spoot loves.
