I searched my email for comments about Glassouse and I see this discussion from 2017.  Does anyone have any updated information about its use?

I found that I needed to do a lot of "bouncing". But it was fairly easy. And it actually seemed easier to do so than with the head mouse (given that sometimes I feel like the head mouse needs a instant to reacquire when I'm bouncing, thus leading to it not picking up until my head is already closer to the center.) ________________________________________

Thanks Ed for this helpful info - how would you compare it to head mouse
- is it more of an "absolute" movement?  Did you have to "bounce off"
the screen to recenter the pointer?

  So in the spirit of Antoinette's very helpful review about IR control, I thought I would throw out my quick impressions of this product.

I had what I feel like was the usual issues with connecting to Bluetooth. I always find it finicky. Curious about how well it will work in the longer-term.

The movement of the mouse cursor was very smooth and very well controlled.

You only use the Windows properties for the mouse settings to adjust, so no difference between X and Y movement. On android you would use the mouse settings available there which I believe are only mouse speed.

My biggest complaint was the bite switch. I was certainly able to use it but I found the positioning to be kind of awkward. And of course it interferes with my speech. I may ask them if it can be removed. It made the glasses significantly heavier, (and even with just the Bluetooth mouse portion they were not light to begin with).

It would be nice to replace it with a jack where one could maybe plug-in and ability switch of whatever kind? Or just leave it off entirely and use dwell software.

I tried it for about a half an hour and it stayed connected while I was doing other things.

I am reasonably certain we will keep ours, let me know if somebody else has questions.
