Wow, what a mess. And it looks like you have to put up with WebCT as well.
Yeah good old WebCT, I need it for uni but it definitely is in need of a bit of a makeover, a nice Vbulletin board would be nice.
How does the head-tracking IR mouse work?
The IR mouse works by that device that sits on top of my monitor emitting infrared light which bounces off a small reflective dot that I have stuck my forehead (it's a great look
). By tracking that the mouse follows my head. I only use it when I'm in bed because it easier to use the trackball when I'm in my wheelchair.
Even with all these gadgets, you'd still need someone to help you with things, huh?
I still need lots of help, using the computer is okay but getting up, eating and going to bed etc. is a different story.
If you say a word which isn't in the dictionary, I assume you can still spell things out letter by letter, yes?
How about speed? How fast does the thing let you 'type'?
If the software gets a word wrong, or I say something that it doesn't recognise I can say "correct that" and then teach it the word I said and hopefully it gets it right next time.
It's supposed to be able to handle up to 160 words a minute, but there's no way I can think that fast
I just checked out your web page, I'm doing a bachelor of computing through Deakin University which is probably pretty similar to your degree as well, I try to stay as far away from programming as I can though
I also see you like to roller skate, I used to do that flat out when I was younger somewhere fairly near you probably, the big rink in Campbelltown, skate plus it was called... Probably not even there any more anyway
