ONE SMALL GESTURE
01
Gesture illustration · Windows app requiredPoint. Then pause.The circle fills. The click happens.
FEWER THINGS TO THINK ABOUT
It starts with a point.
These default gestures are a place to start. Practise inside the home camera preview, or choose your own supported assignments.
Pause to click.
Settle over a target. The circle fills, then a check confirms your click. Move away to choose something else.
Open your hand to rest.
An open palm rests control. Point again when you’re ready, or use your physical mouse at any time.
TRY THE FEELING
A pause is all it takes.
Hover over the circle, or tap it to play. With a keyboard, focus it and press Enter.
Interactive illustration only. This website does not access your camera or control your computer.
LEARN WHERE YOU CONTROL
Your hand. Your practice. One home.
See how AirDesk reads your hand and practise on targets inside the home camera preview. Stay on the home screen while you learn.
Practise in place.
The camera view and larger targets stay together, with guided practice for enabled click, scroll and drag gestures.
See just your gestures.
Home shows your active gesture images, grouping shared poses with their actions. Settings → General can optionally show the same reference over other apps without intercepting clicks.
Edit in Settings.
Open Settings → Gestures to choose a function, pick one of three compatible images, turn it off or restore defaults.
A DIFFERENT WAY INThe screen you know.
The screen you know.
A new way to reach it.
No wearable, no extra controller, no cloud model in the pointer loop. Just a native Windows app and your camera.
Your whole screen.
Move and click across the selected Windows display, beyond the app’s camera preview.
Your camera stays yours.
Hand tracking runs locally. AirDesk does not record your camera feed or send it to a cloud model.
You stay in control.
Use your physical mouse to take over. Open your hand to rest, or pause with Ctrl + Alt + Space.
START WHERE YOU’RE COMFORTABLE
Adjust only if you need to.
Start with Automatic in Settings → General. There is no manual reach setup to work through first.
Automatic adapts your reach from the visible size of your hand while you start or rest. It holds the mapping steady while you point, click or drag.
Fixed keeps your saved reach. Optional manual setup appears only when you choose Fixed.
Keep your whole hand in view. These settings adjust control reach, not camera zoom or a measured distance in centimetres.
PRACTICAL IDEAS TO EXPLORE
Keep the instructions within reach.
Start with reference and navigation tasks on a Windows screen. Each of these examples needs its own supervised pilot.
At a repair bench
Step through a repair guide or enlarge a parts diagram without reaching for a mouse.
Fix the camera position; test lighting, hand clearance and any gloves you plan to wear.
At an assembly bench
Open the next work instruction or inspect a reference image between assembly steps.
Use large, spaced controls and allow a deliberate pause to select each step.
A Windows information kiosk
Browse a short menu, map or visitor information on a shared display.
Use large menus and stable lighting, with separate kiosk software for lockdown and public sessions.
During training or inspection
Move between reference photos, checklist pages or procedure steps on a nearby screen.
Keep a clear camera view and confirm that users can see each selection before continuing.
These are unvalidated pilot ideas. Never use AirDesk for machine start/stop, emergency functions or other safety controls.
