How it works
From a head movement to a spoken sentence.
No mouse, keyboard, touchscreen, or wearable sensor required.
Hold to choose
A forgiving dwell target fills over time. Rest zones and cooldowns prevent accidental selections.
Speak it aloud
Build a sentence, edit it hands-free, then play it through the computer’s offline voice.
Measured pointing error
0.5–1.0% across
against a 7.2% horizontal target budget
Designed around real movement
Two rows preserve vertical tolerance without shrinking vocabulary.
Why head pointing
Accuracy through thoughtful constraints.
Webcam eye tracking magnifies every pixel of iris jitter. Head pose avoids that lever-arm problem, producing a steadier signal from the same camera.
- Nearest-word targeting
- Temporal filtering
- Large two-row targets
