Camera Mouse is a free program, made at Boston College, that enables you to control the mouse pointer on your Windows computer screen just by moving your head.

The program was developed to help people with disabilities use the computer. The main audience for this program is people who do not have reliable control of a hand but who can move their head.

Camera Mouse works best with application programs that require only a mouse and a left click and that do not have tiny targets. It’s easier to use Camera Mouse with application programs that do not require extreme accuracy.

To use Camera Mouse you need a Windows 7, Windows Vista or Windows XP computer and a webcam.
