Tracer is a whole new kind of mouse you control by moving your head.

The easy-to-use Tracer's micro-gyroscope technology senses the smallest movements of your head, then transmits those movements to your computer using radio frequency

Compared to other head pointers, it is the most accurate and responsive, best featured, and best valued head pointer available. So use your head. Get a Tracer.

Boost Tracer is affordable as well. There are many other products that range from $900-$1600! Boost Tracer is available for the low cost of $795. You can call us at 415-794-2937 -To purchase Boost products -For Customer Service - For more information about Boost products

What can boost to for people with disabilities?

Nick Harrington, studentIf I can do it, you can too. Hi, I’m an 11 year-old quad who goes to school. I use a laptop

computer. I used to use a mouth stick and hit one key at a time. Now, with the Boost Tracer, I can type, play games, and do my homework faster and have my mouth free to talk - and I like to talk.

For computer games, I need to move exactly where I want when I want, and with the Boost Tracer I can move right where I want without that mushy feeling that some of the other head pointers have.

I like to take my laptop outside a lot. Unlike the other head pointers, the Boost Tracer works in sunlight, and I don’t need some big, heavy battery to make it work.

Sincerely,Nick Harrington
