A New Twist on Googles Glass- Computer Controlled with Your Eyes


(PRWEB) June 30, 2012

Google introduced its wearable computer augmented reality concept Google Glass this week to developers. Videos show ability to record real time video, GPS for directions, weather reports and connection to social media. Now, imagine using only your eyes to control your computer.

BLiNK Eye Tracking Technology was created by Devon Greco in response to his ALS-stricken fathers limitation of interaction with his family. The muscular paralysis of ALS (Lou Gehrigs disease) left his father with only the ability to communicate through eye movement and an $ 18,000 computer. Greco knew there was a better way and using his imagination and electrical engineering background, conjured up a device that would allow millions of people like his father to communicate with, low-cost, hands-free, wireless, eye-tracking technology.

I saw the concept video last night, and I thought it was a really interesting idea. I could see this idea catching on really quick with the younger generations. I’m just not sure how they’re going to make it so the data doesn’t block out too much of your real-life vision. I can see a lot more car crashes and other accidents because of that.

If they can fine-tune this prototype idea, it could definitely be a great invention.
