Mouz
version 1.00
If you would like use a laser pointer to move the mouse during your presentations, all you need is a DV camera and Mouz.
Plug the camera into your PC using Firewire and point it at the projected screen. Then run Mouz and calibrate it by specifying the corners of the screen , Mouz will then motion track the movement of the laser across the screen, map this to the correct screen coordinates and move the cursor.
Your laser must be bright enough to be the single brightest point in the camera's field of view, ie brighter than the projected image of the screen.
Mouz is PC only. Apologies to Mac users.
Mouz is free software so you may use and distribute it freely.
