Abstract
A method of using a compute in a hands free environment, including the use of a gyroscopic sensor, in association with a mouse driver, to manipulate a computer curser across a computer screen is provided. The method utilizes either voice recognition software, in association with a hierarchal command set, which allows simple commands for routine computer mouse functions, or a body mounted paddle or switch device which allows simple body movements to perform click and drag functions of a mouse. The invention is particularly useful in association with body mounted computers having head mounted screens, as the method overcomes the problems of selecting computer functions while away from a desk or laptop computer.
