Hands-free computing

Hey there kiddo! Do you know what hands are for? They're for doing things like picking up toys, drawing pictures, and typing on a keyboard. But what if you weren't able to use your hands to do those things? That's where hands-free computing comes in!

Imagine you have a little friend who talks to your computer. You can tell them what you want the computer to do, and they'll do it for you! You don't even need to touch the computer with your hands. Cool, huh?

Now, how does it work? Well, there are a few different ways. One way is to use a microphone to talk to your computer. You can say things like "Open Microsoft Word" or "Type the letter A." The computer will then listen to what you said and carry out your instructions.

Another way is to use a camera and your head movements. You can wear a special headset that has a camera attached to it. When you move your head, the computer will detect it and move the cursor on the screen. You can even use special gestures with your head to click on things.

Hands-free computing can be really helpful for people who have disabilities that make it hard to use their hands, like people with paralysis or arthritis. But anyone can use it if they want to! It's just another way to interact with your computer and make your life a little easier.
