Necessity of mouse-pointer-trajectory recognition software for desktop PC users




Apple’s new tablet machine, which is said to come out in the spring of coming year, I guess, might be grown to a good platform for reading electronic-newspapers. Meanwhile, as a MS-Windows desktop PC user, I hope mouse-pointer motion recognition software is developed and available for desktop computers sometime in future. Right-click-required mouse operation while reading through news articles seems to be an obstacle for prospective prevalence of e-papers. Zooming and page-flip should be able to become possible only by an automatic recognition of simple and discriminative trajectory (Fig) of the mouse pointer in the era of Windows8.
