I recall there are keyboards designed in a spherical form for each hand and another resembling an inverted glove with keys inside.

I comprehend and share your perspective, but for a patent application, I must decline. It’s not appropriate to demonstrate the functionality or provide product images.
However, I believe it’s feasible to describe the keyboard’s use in terms of its capabilities without detailing its physical form or operation, as the focus remains on the features rather than the hardware.

Sorry for my harshness, I wasn't trying to be rude.
In my country it's very clear that you can't apply for a patent on something already disclosed, and that's what concerns me.
Even if the idea is shared and I can show it's mine, it would only make the process more complicated, which I want to avoid.
During the patent application procedure, you can only submit text and photos. A proof of concept isn't required because the keyboard change will be small and all functionality will come from the firmware or driver.

AutoHotKey offers great flexibility.
Switching from GNU/linux to Windows for online multiplayer games made me realize the usefulness of KWin (KDE's default compositor) in removing window decorations and arranging apps neatly, reducing static title bars and creating a cleaner workspace.
After some investigation, AutoHotKey has emerged as a dependable alternative.

I’d be somewhat curious, but I wouldn’t likely buy it without asking questions.
My skills with my current keyboard are strong thanks to training and experience, and my workflow doesn’t require much text input, so it would have to be exceptionally good for me to invest significant time in retraining myself (I really value a quality keyboard, so the cost isn’t as important to me).
The equation might work better for someone who writes a lot, codes, or struggles with RSI.
Good luck with your invention—feel free to share what it is once you’ve received the patent or decided not to pursue one.
