How does it get activated? Tied to the real thumb?
I haven't tried it but it has a couple foot sensors that are used to control it. Probably more preferable if there was some way to link it into the nervous system without surgery, but lacking that it's going to piggyback on some other fine motor control.
You control it with your feet? That seems counter-intuitive ngl.
It's apparently like driving a car or riding a bike or swinging a hammer, there's a small learning curve but with a little practice it's overcome pretty quickly and feels like a natural extension of yourself. But yeah given a preference I'd probably want to try tying it to wrist or hand movements for practicality.
Yeah I cannot imagine it being easy to use when standing or walking.
