A few months back I suffered from an elbow tendon injury (also known as tennis elbow). Repetitive strain injuries (RSI) such as this one are common amongst workers or occupations who spend a lot of their time at the computer. I guess we can all relate to that. :) My elbow injury happened because of mouse/touchpad overuse. I was frustrated in the beginning but this also prompted me to find other ways of interacting with my computer. This got me thinking - the tech has massively advanced over the years but we are still using a computer mouse which is something that was created 60 years ago? That's how Cursorly started.
It provides a more natural way of moving your cursor and it helps to avoid RSI. It's meant to serve as an alternative to a computer mouse. The only thing you need is a camera and with a bit of machine learning magic, Cursorly can recognize your hands. As you move your hand the cursor will move along.
This opens a lot of possibilities. Now you can sit, stand or lay down and still move your cursor since there is no need to be in a certain position. There is also less pressure on your muscles because you don't have to literally move or press something. You can also click or scroll with a few simple hand gestures.
My favorite feature is that now I can use my left hand to move the cursor (I'm right-handed) which felt very awkward when I was trying to do it with a mouse.
Cursorly comes with 2 modes - Air touchpad and Nose touchpad. Nose touchpad is similar to Air touchpad (see above) but with a small twist - instead of using your hand to move the cursor, you can use your nose instead! :D
To get the best feel for it, I suggest viewing a demo on Air touchpad -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JBzG6yYkHQ
