Simple setup · about 2 minutes

Let your webcam see your keyboard.

Use a purpose-built reflector or a small mirror you may already have. Angle it once, check the preview, and you are ready to practice.

Try a household mirror first—you do not need to buy anything to see if TypeSight works for you.

The only goal

Get this view in the camera preview

It does not have to look perfect. TypeSight just needs a clear, steady view of the keys and your hands.

  • The whole keyboard is visible
  • Both hands stay in frame
  • The picture is bright and steady

Choose what is easiest

Two simple ways to reflect the keyboard into your webcam

Both options do the same job. Start with what you have; choose the reflector later only if you want a setup that is faster to repeat.

$0 option

Use an everyday mirror

A compact makeup mirror is often enough. A small standing mirror or a hand mirror propped securely can work too.

What works bestA flat, non-magnifying surface that is wide enough to show the keyboard without blocking too much of your screen.

Use the regular side of a makeup mirror. A magnifying side can bend the image and make tracking harder.

Easiest to repeat

Use a camera reflector

A purpose-built reflector clips near the laptop webcam and points it down toward your keyboard. It is a convenient choice for regular practice.

  • Attaches close to the webcam
  • Keeps a repeatable viewing angle
  • Easy to remove and store

Set it up

Place, angle, check—then leave it alone

There is no measurement to get right. Use the live preview and adjust by sight.

  1. 1

    Place the mirror

    Clip a reflector over the webcam. For a regular mirror, place it below the webcam—usually near the laptop hinge or back edge of the keyboard—with the reflective side facing the camera. Make sure it cannot slip.

  2. 2

    Angle it using the preview

    Open live setup, then slowly tilt or move the mirror until the full keyboard and both hands appear. Let the keyboard fill most of the preview without cutting off its edges.

  3. 3

    Add light and keep it still

    Use soft, even room light. Avoid bright glare on the keys or mirror. Once the preview looks good, stop moving the laptop, camera, and mirror.

Helping a child? Set up the view together the first time, then mark the mirror position with a small removable sticker so it is easy to recreate.

Quick fixes

Part of the keyboard is cut off
Move the mirror slightly farther away or use a shallower angle. Make small adjustments while watching the preview.
My hands disappear while typing
Include a little space in front of the keyboard so your fingers and the lower part of both hands stay visible.
The keys look dark or shiny
Move the lamp to one side, avoid a bright window behind you, and wipe fingerprints from the mirror.
The key outlines do not line up
TypeSight corrects reflected input by default. Leave “Correct mirrored input” on; if the view is not reflected, toggle it once.
