Revision as of 19:58, 11 September 2015

MouseTrap is a GNOME desktop application that allows users with motion disabilities to move the cursor. MouseTrap uses a webcam to track the user's motion, typically forehead or eyes, and moves the cursor accordingly. MouseTrap is written in Python and uses the OpenCV libraries.

MouseTrap is being managed jointly under the GNOME Accessibility Team along with faculty and student representatives from Drexel University, Western New England University and Nassau Community College.
