Inspiration
For people with hand tremors, something as simple as navigating a website, clicking a button, or typing a message can become frustrating and difficult. Many existing solutions rely on applying uniform smoothing to cursor movement, which can make the cursor feel sluggish and interfere with intentional movements.
We wanted to approach this problem differently. Instead of simply slowing the cursor down, we asked: What if technology could distinguish between intentional movement and involuntary fluctuations, then adapt to the user in real time?
That question inspired Smooth Mouse, an accessibility-focused browser extension designed to make everyday web navigation more comfortable without taking control away from the user.
