Popis:	People unable to use hands to interact with computers do require special devices to gain access to information technology services. The rise of do-it-yourself (DIY) electronics makes it possible to release construction kits of a wide range of gadgets, including hands-free computer mice. In this paper we present one such building kit for a full-featured computer mouse that is controlled by head movements. The result kit includes an easy-to-find bill of materials, instructions to build the device and to use it. The first experiments showed that the mouse was working fine with people that have good control on head movements but that its embedded program must be customized for other individuals.
