Eye Control sounds like the latest Apple product, but it is in fact an interesting concept that allows the user to control the laptop buy simply just looking at the screen! The advantages of such an application are obvious, gaming springs to mind, but the Tobii system has been designed to complement the keyboard and mouse rather than replace them. This is an excerpt from the company’s press release; Most computer manufacturer’s today endeavour to enhance their products by adding more and more natural interfaces. Using our eyes to point, select and scroll is completely intuitive and complements traditional control interfaces, such as the mouse and keyboard, in a very natural way. “More than anything else, the Tobii laptop prototype is proof that our eye tracking technology is mature enough to be used in standard computer interfaces. To reach a state where the technology is part of the average computer, we need to make it smaller and cheaper. We believe that this can be realized in a couple of years by partnering with the right manufacturer,” comments Henrik Eskilsson, CEO of Tobii Technology.
