1. QPOINTER HANDSFREE

   --- DISCONTINUED. (Verified 9/2011) RETAINED IN DATABASE FOR REFERENCE. --- QPointer HandsFree is a mouse emulator program designed for use by individuals with upper extremity or fine motor disabilities or spinal cord injury. This program enables complete application-independent computer operation by voice. The voice is not used to communicate with applications, but to bring the cursor directly to the needed point on the screen, and then to perform mouse commands. The technology identifies each object on the screen and enables the user to directly point at each object by voice. QPointer may be used to point at words in documents, on icons, on buttons, and elsewhere on the screen; graphics, including icons, links, toolbar elements, etc.; and controls such as scrollbar elements, minimize button, maximize button, etc. Switching between applications may also be accomplished by voice. This program also enables the user to create, format, edit, and save documents; write, edit, and manage E-mail; and surf the Internet, all by voice. A database of the user's most commonly used words can be created and profiles for multiple users can be stored. This software permits dictation into any Windows-based application. A headset microphone is included in the package. COMPATIBILITY: For use on IBM and compatible computers. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: Pentium III, 660 MegaHertz (MHz) or faster processor; Windows 98,2000, ME, or XP; 128 megabytes (MB) RAM; 150 MB free hard drive space; a SoundBlaster-compatible sound card; and, the included headset microphone.

2. QPOINTER KEYBOARD

   --- DISCONTINUED. (Verified 9/2011) RETAINED IN DATABASE FOR REFERENCE. --- QPointer Keyboard is a mouse emulator program designed for use by individuals with upper extremity or fine motor disabilities. This program enables operation of a computer in a graphical user interface (GUI) environment using only the keyboard. With QPointer Keyboard running, the keyboard functions as a relative and absolute pointing device, in addition to performing standard keyboard functions. The technology enables identification of each object on the screen, allowing direct pointing using the keyboard. Capabilities include discrete object-wise cursor movement, direct pointing at screen objects, and mouse-button emulation (left click, right click, double click, scroll wheel). However, the physical mouse also remains operational, enabling the user to select operations to be performed by the keyboard or the mouse. The program is supplied with default configurations which assign functions to particular keys, but they can be reassigned to meet user needs. QPointer may be used to point at words in documents, on icons, on buttons, and elswhere on the screen; graphics, including icons, links, toolbar elements, etc.; and controls such as scrollbar elements, minimize button, maximize button, etc. COMPATIBILITY: For use on IBM and compatible computers.
