MaxiMuse

Hands-free mouse for gloved hands

Your hands are the mouse.

MaxiMouse turns your webcam into a mouse and your voice into a keyboard. Move the cursor with your palm, pinch to click, make a fist to turn a 3D model. Keep your gloves on and your chair where it is.

Mac and Windows · Works with exocad, 3Shape and any app that takes a mouse

Try it yourself

Wave, then take the mouse.

The demo runs on your computer, not ours. The hand model (8 MB) and the speech model (40 MB) download once, then your camera and microphone stay inside this tab.

Notes

How it works

Three moves from gloves on to clicked.

  1. 1

    Wave to take the mouse

    MaxiMouse ignores your hands until you wave. Drop your hand out of view and it lets go.

  2. 2

    Point with your palm

    The cursor follows your whole hand. Tap index to thumb to click, hold it to drag.

  3. 3

    Say the rest

    “Click save.” “Scroll down.” “Type patient tolerated well.” Speech turns into text on your computer.

Two hands, two jobs

A mouse in one hand. A SpaceMouse in the other.

Voice control and patient records

Voice control starts in Private mode: speech turns into text on your computer and nothing leaves it, so it is safe with a chart open. Smart mode sends commands it doesn't know to an outside service to work them out, and switches back to Private by itself whenever Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft or an imaging program is in front.
