Review of Hands Free Mouse

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the look-ma-no-hands dept.

SLDave wrote in to plug his review of NaturalPoint's hands free mouse that covered by Slashdot some time ago. It seems to work as advertised, using a camera to track your head and replace your mouse, but with a lot of caveats. Definitely worth a look for us truly lazy folks.

    At long last, hands free web surfing. Just think of what you can do now that your not stuck with one hand on the mouse.

    On second thought, better not to think about that.

    Silver dots?!?

    I'm already the geek of my neighborhood, but if I forget to take those things off I'll never hear the end of it I'm sure.

    I'll pass since it isn't as precise as a mouse but I'm really taken by the concept. Especially if I can play CounterStrike or UnReal Tourney with it.
