''Eye mouse'' to help disabled people get online

Recommended Posts

BUENOS AIRES: High school students of the ORT technical school in Argentina have presented a new technology that could help severally disabled people get online at a very low cost.

The software and webcam system was developed by the two 18-year-olds so that one of their friend''s who suffers from Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) could use the computer.

Eye movements are translated by the Eye Mouse with a standard webcam into on-screen actions.

It means that people who suffer from SMA like Nicolas Rossi can control the computer with their eyes.
