Product

Built for one job: local desktop gesture control

IQPalm is intentionally narrow. The beta should prove reliable mouse movement, click control, scroll control, pause, resume, and emergency stop before anything broader is added.

What it is

A Windows-first desktop controller that maps hand gestures to narrow mouse actions.

What it is not

Not a mobile app, not production assistive technology, and not a background service.

Where data goes

Camera frames are processed locally in memory and are not recorded by the app.

Who should test

Invited testers who can use a safe desktop area and report reliability issues.

Beta reality

Clear limits before anyone asks for the build

The portal should make the risks visible before the download path.

Reliable enough for

Cursor movement tests, click cooldown testing, calibration feedback, camera startup checks.

Not acceptable for

Banking, admin panels, messaging, approvals, file deletion, or production operations.

Tester responsibility

Keep PyAutoGUI failsafe available, learn emergency stop, and test in a low-risk desktop area.

Privacy

Local-first, with precise limits

IQPalm needs camera access to detect your hand, but the beta is designed so video is processed locally and not recorded or uploaded.

These limits should be visible before download, not hidden in release notes.

  • Lighting affects accuracy
  • Camera angle matters
  • Hand distance matters
  • False gestures may happen
  • Windows-first beta
  • Not mobile yet
  • Not production-ready
