We developed a gesture interface (AAGI) for individuals with motor dysfunction who cannot use standard interface switches. These users have cerebral palsy, quadriplegia, or traumatic brain injury and experience involuntary movement, spasticity, and so on. In this paper, we describe a disabled user who utilizes a mouth stick for laptop PC input in daily life. Our objective is to lower the burden on his body by using gestures. To this end, we developed a “home position” for the head that enables gestures to coexist with the mouse stick usage. The results of basic experiments with five healthy participants indicate that our system has reached the level where it can be applied to actual disabled persons. Finally, we applied the system to a user with cerebral palsy asked him to perform web browsing.
