Open-source AI cursor control with computer vision
In addition to the DIY edition, AbleMouse has gained a new open-source AI module for face-controlled mouse navigation. Now you just need to point your nose at the desired spot on the screen—regardless of the screen's width—and the cursor will move there. Unlike eye trackers, it feels natural and doesn't strain your eyes. AbleMouse now provides specialized sub-products for various physical needs.

The solution is fully open-source https://github.com/aradzhabov/Ab...
and can be easily adapted to meet the needs of a specific individual.
To use AbleMouse AI edition, it is enough that you can turn and tilt your head, and use your eyes and mouth.
The mouse pointer is positioned based on the direction of your nose, allowing you to work fast and effectively even with very large screens.
MacOS and Windows do not have such a solution built-in.
Another very important difference from other solutions is that your eyes remain free, as the tracking is based on the direction of your nose.
This provides a much more natural feeling for us as humans and and doesn't strain your eyes.
For example, solutions that require you to look at the point where you want to move the cursor demand significantly more effort and feel unnatural.
An ordinary person using a hand-operated mouse can look anywhere—AbleMouse allows you to do the same.
The code works under both Windows and Mac Os. Unix/Ubuntu support possible — requires testing
I also wanted to mention that AbleMouse has become a set of products that work depending on the degree of a person's limitations. You can view the table here:

Overall, I also see the program as an educational moment. I think many students will be able to pick up something useful for themselves.
As we approach Christmas and the New Year, I truly hope that everyone who needs help will be able to receive it.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
