1. A method for minimizing essential tremor effects while utilizing a pointing device on a computer system;

  • the method comprising the steps of;

    (a) obtaining an individual'"'"'s tremor characteristics;

    (b) calculating the frequency components of the tremor to obtain digital filter coefficients; and

    (c) creating a calibration profile plug-in based upon the digital coefficients; and

    (d) utilizing the calibration profile plug-in to recalibrate the pointing device by loading it into a pointing device driver to eliminate the effects of the essential tremors.
