We have a couple of entries on the FAST database of assistive technology for
systems which are operated using eye pointing or other limited facial
movements-might that be an idea?

Hollybank Trust is a special school which has done a lot of work on using
eye pointing software for educational purposes.  More details at

You might have a look at this:

I haven't tried it for years, but it seems the site is regularly updated and
I presume the project is still supported.

Can anyone advise - does anyone have any suggestions of ways to run a
computer by someone with wrist/ hand muscle problems but is also deaf - i.e.
the option of programmes such as Dragon naturally speaking, to avoid
keyboard input is not really an option. Has anyone any other suggestions?
