  • the present invention is based on the recognition that people are not able to hold a pointing device, e.g. laser pointer, absolutely steady due to hand tremor. It is known from literature that the hand tremor is of low amplitude at around 10 - 12 Hz. Furthermore it is known that this low amplitude tremor subtends an angle of around 0.4 - 0.5 degrees, with respect to the most direct path from the laser to the surface where the laser light impinges on. If the information on a screen comprises a lot of small details, it would become difficult to select or point at a detail (content). This will become even worse if a user with Parkinson disease is using a laser pointer.

  • This feature enables to change the size of the content such that it remains constant from the user point of view.
  • the angle wherein the pointing device moves due to the hand tremor is steady.
  • the distance between the user and the display or input determines the extent of jitter in the signals received at the detection device and movement of the spot on display device. If the distance doubles the amplitude of the jitter in the signals received at the detection device and movement of the spot will double. Knowing the distance or change in distance enables to adapt the content such that the perceptibility of the content on the display device remains the same for each distance.
