Inspiration

We were inspired by a simple observation: humans have been letting mice control our computers for decades. Why are we taking orders from an inferior species? This inspired us to create a way for humans to directly control their cursors without relying on rodent-inspired technology. We worked incredibly hard at developing Dynamic Positional Pointer (PP), inspired by our belief that the most advanced species on Earth deserves a more advanced pointing system than plastic mouse replicas.

What it does

Dynamic PP replaces a traditional mouse with human movements, ensuring precision and accuracy. With our sleek design, our product can be used in small spaces or large fields, thanks to our sensitivity feature. Want to click a button in the top-right corner? Simply walk northeast until you reach the perfect pixel! Our innovative up-down coordinate system handles all clicking: lift your phone high above your head for a right-click, or crouch down low for a standard left-click (a minimum speed is required). Our F.A.R.T. (Fitness Analytics & Real-time Tracking) technology transforms every computing task into a cardio workout. As a bonus, Dynamic PP naturally promotes team collaboration. Imagine the synergy when your entire office is jumping and crouching together to complete a group project.

How we built it

We used the various sensors in our iPhone, such as the gyroscope and elevation data, to measure movement. We then integrated these into the React Native application that we built entirely ourselves. After that, we connected the app to our laptop through WebSockets to enable real-time communication between the mobile application and the MacBook.

Challenges we ran into

We built our project while using trackpads and mice (ew). This was an incredibly difficult challenge as they are just so impractical and limiting. How could we possibly innovate beyond traditional pointing technology while still being enslaved by it? Our productivity plummeted as we struggled with these archaic input devices. Ironically, our challenges only disappeared after our first Dynamic PP model was released - finally, we could develop software the way nature intended: by walking around our neighbourhood.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud that we took humanity to the next level, the interaction between humans and computers is never going to be the same after this, this is like AGI but real.

What we learned

We learned a lot about web sockets, how to work with Mac's internal tools, how to build full stack mobile applications and a lot more!

What's next for Dynamic PP (Positional Pointer)

Our team is hard at work on making a new product: Dynamic C.R.A.P. (Cursor Response & Acceleration Platform). This revolutionary system will require users to sprint at full speed to achieve basic scrolling functionality.
