Amazing Device to control cursor with your tongue

Valve Engineer Ben Krasnow is bringing a whole new meaning to the term “smart mouth”. He’s invented a mouse that is controlled through a user’s tongue movements.

Krasnow says the mouse it doesn’t achieve perfectly smooth movements, despite the tongue’s fine motor capabilities. But he sees a future for devices like this. He says “I think there is possible applications for swipe interfaces, carousel menus, yes/no input, etc.”

A handsfree control system would also suit augmented reality devices. Tongue mouse designs have also been developed for paralyzed computer users in the past. Check out the video to see it in action.
