Instructions for use
1、Equipment installation
- 1.1 In order to adapt to various possible placement positions, we have adopted a deformable base design. Please adjust the base shape as required so that the Aimxy Z device can be placed stably at the required position, such as the top of the screen or above the screen lamp.
- 1.2 The design of the side lens is to take into account the structural occupancy of the top middle position such as the screen lamp, which leads to the problem that the lens cannot be absolutely centered.When the Aimxy Z device host is clamped into the base bracket, it can make the lens on the left or right as required.When the lens is set to the left, turn on the "flip" switch on the front page of Aimxy Z software.
- 1.3 Use the attached connecting line to connect the Aimxy Z device with the computer. In order to ensure the stable placement of the device, wrap the connecting line inserted from the side of the device back and clip it into a line card behind the base bracket, and then turn the connecting line back out to naturally sag.
- 1.4 The equipment shall be placed at a distance of not less than 40cm from the head, and too close may lead to exceeding the lens range.The Aimxy Z can work normally when it is placed 15 degrees above the front, 30 degrees below the front, and 30 degrees from the left and right sides of the head. It is not allowed to look down or squint at the head too much.It can be placed at the height of the lower edge of the screen to obtain the best effect, but it is necessary to avoid the obstruction of objects such as rocker or steering wheel to the head imaging.In case of image inching caused by blinking, in addition to turning on the AI+ switch according to the following description 2.5, press to place the device on the lower edge of the screen.
- 1.5 Start the computer, run Aimxy Z software, adjust the deformable base and hemispherical joint of the equipment, make the pitch and deflection angle of the equipment lens appropriate, and make your head image in a moderate position Please pay special attention: try to move the head to all possible positions in use to ensure that the head frame does not exceed the boundary. Once it exceeds the boundary, it will immediately lead to abnormal sensing Therefore, it is suggested to provide more space for downward displacement, that is, when sitting in a normal position, the head frame can be slightly upward relative to the central area.
- 1.6 The focal length of the lens of the factory equipment has been adjusted, but if it is found that the picture is obviously blurred, the lens can be slightly rotated for fine adjustment. Do not remove the lens. Damage to components will lead to warranty failure.
- 1.7 When wearing some glasses with strong reflection made of special materials, please turn your head up, down, left, right and move your head. If you can see the light and shadow reflected by the lens change in the image, please move the Aimxy Z device to the left or right, and turn the lens towards yourself (see 1.4 for side placement restrictions) until you can't see the continuous reflection.
- 1.8 If the head of the use position is more than one meter away from the equipment, the "zoom" slider on the home page of Aimxy Z software can be used to appropriately enlarge the head image.Please note that enlarging the image will increase the CPU usage. The Aimxy Z supports a distance of up to 3m. Properly enlarging the image and normal ambient brightness can ensure the effect of long-distance use.
- 1.9 Suggested triangle size and position when the device is placed above the screen
- 1.10 Suggested triangle size and position when the device is placed under the screen and sideways
2. Gamepad games (e.g. Black Myth: WuKong, GTA, etc.)
- 2.1 Warning: When using an Xbox gamepad to connect to a computer via a wired or dedicated receiver, please make sure that the Xbox controller is turned on and successfully connected to the computer before starting the Aimxy Z software, otherwise the buttons of the Xbox controller will not be recognized normally by the Aimxy Z software.

Instructions for ZMouse
1. Design goals
The design goal of ZMouse is: based on the AimxyZ head aiming system, to provide an easy-to-operate, high-precision, full-featured head-controlled mouse function for people whose head can move normally but whose hands cannot be used, or who have cervical spine problems. We hope that our efforts can help more people, so that they can start a life full of hope.
2. Working principle

According to the software settings, for example, if the head turns within 10 degrees relative to the screen, it is a "Precision", and if it is more than 10 degrees, it is a "Glide". In the micro-motion range, the head can control the horizontal movement of the cursor by turning the head left and right, and the vertical movement of the cursor by turning the head up and down with extremely high precision. After the head exceeds the inching range, the cursor enters the sliding mode. As the head rotation angle increases, the sliding speed will become faster and faster until the upper limit is set.
- 3.2. ZMouse has three working states: "Motion mode", "Lockon mode" and "Repose mode". When the cursor stays somewhere on the screen for a short while, the cursor will change from moving to locked. In the locked state, you can turn your head up, down, left, right, and up and down in a small range and elegantly, and you can realize up to 6 functions of the mouse button, of which 5 functions can be selected by turning the head in 4 directions. If there is no operation within 5 seconds in the locked state, the ZMouse will enter the "rest" state, and all key functions will be stopped. To unlock the cursor and put it back into motion, just shake your head once from side to side.
