What is Magic Key?
Developed for people who have upper body difficulties, this computer software permits the use of all the software of a normal computer.
A normal webcam connected to the computer captures the images of the user’s face. The software determines the place on the monitor intended by the user and places the cursor there. A wink is used to click the mouse buttons.
By using a normal virtual keyboard placed in a corner of the screen, the user simply positions the cursor on the letter key and winks. The key is immediately sent to the active software.
Based on research by Prof. Luís Figueiredo of the ESTG of Guarda, with support from the Associação de Beneficência Augusto Gil, three different solutions are now available to solve differing computer access needs.
