AR Air Mouse

AR Air Mouse Logo

Experience a True Hands-Free World

AR Air Mouse provides a revolutionary, true hands-free way to control your Android device when using AR glasses.

By turning simple head movements or natural gestures—such as a subtle bite or a tap—into a highly responsive virtual mouse cursor, AR Air Mouse allows you to navigate apps, select buttons, and scroll without ever touching a screen. This unlocks a deeply immersive and natural interaction paradigm, perfectly tailored for AR computing environments.

Feature Graphics


Powerful Hands-Free Control

Once enabled, a precision virtual cursor appears on your screen, letting you interact with any app exactly as you would with a physical mouse.

AR Air Mouse uses physical gestures to execute instant commands. A highlight feature is the Bite gesture, an effortless and entirely hands-free trigger designed specifically for the head-mounted display experience.

Customizable Action Mapping

The application offers an extensive settings menu, allowing you to tailor the experience to your exact preferences. You can map any of the available gestures to a wide array of system actions.

Available Gestures:

  • Knock (Hard Tap) ×2: Quick toggle to enable or disable the virtual mouse
  • Tap / Bite: Executable triggers
  • Tap / Bite ×2: Double actions
  • Tap / Bite ×3: Triple actions
  • Tap / Bite ×4: Quadruple actions

Map gestures to powerful actions:

  • Click / Select
  • Magnifier (Zoom)
  • Open specific Apps
  • Go Back / Go Home
  • Scroll Arrows (Up/Down/Left/Right)
  • Swipe (Left / Right / Up / Down)
  • Touch and Hold

Designed for AR Experiences

AR Air Mouse is engineered from the ground up to integrate seamlessly with AR glasses, smart glasses, and head-mounted displays. It perfectly fills the interactive gap when physically touching your phone is inconvenient or impossible.

Ideal for:

  • AR glasses enthusiasts and daily users.
  • Total hands-free operation scenarios (working, viewing, multitasking).
  • Deeply immersive spatial media viewing experiences.

Installation Guide

Option 1: Google Play Store

For AR glasses running standard Android with Google Play Services enabled, we recommend installing directly from the Play Store for seamless automatic updates.

Download AR Air Mouse on Google Play

Option 2: Sideloading (APK)

For AR glasses running customized Android operating systems without Google Play Services, you can manually sideload the application directly.

  1. Download the latest APK file from the releases folder in this repository.
  2. Transfer the APK file to your glasses and install it using your preferred file manager.

Important Accessibility Service Information

AR Air Mouse requires the Android AccessibilityService API to enable its core functionalities: displaying the virtual cursor overlay and simulating granular touch interactions.

Why the Accessibility Service is required:

  • To display and control a persistent virtual mouse cursor seamlessly over other applications.
  • To perform simulated global touch actions, including taps, complex swipes, scrolling, and system navigation (Back/Home).
  • To facilitate interaction directly from AR glasses without physical touch.

Privacy & Security Commitment:

  • Strictly Functional Use: The Accessibility Service is used solely for the documented AR Air Mouse control features.
  • Zero Data Collection: The app does not collect, store, or transmit any personal, private, or sensitive user data.
  • No Monitoring: The service does not read text input, capture passwords, or monitor private UI content.
  • User Controlled: The service remains inactive until you manually grant permission in the Android Accessibility Settings. It can be revoked or deactivated at any time.

Enjoy a revolutionary new way to interact with your AR device — simple, intuitive, and completely hands-free.
