Augmental

Augmental is a San Francisco-based company that originated from the MIT Media Lab.

It focuses on developing human augmentation technologies to enhance how people interact with computing systems. The company's flagship product, the MouthPad, is a custom-fit, smart intraoral device that allows users to control their devices hands-free using tongue, head, and breath gestures. The MouthPad is designed to convert subtle movements into cursor control and clicks for various devices, including phones, computers, and tablets. It connects via Bluetooth and is compatible with all major operating systems. Currently, the MouthPad is available in the United States through an Early Access program, where interested users can join a waitlist for purchase notifications. Augmental aims to provide intuitive interaction solutions, particularly for individuals with disabilities, while also appealing to general users seeking innovative ways to control their devices.
