Eye Movement Detection By: Zach Campanella

Early Research Professor Guang-Zhong Yang Began research by detecting how the eye moves Detecting waving hand in crowd At 2002 he had hope to apply his research to Keyhole surgery Computers Cars Fighter Pilots

Present Actions controlled just through eye movement Typing Pulling up emails Most basic computer functions Using most basic computer applications Advanced applications like photoshop need more advanced technology Moving wheelchairs

Present (Continued) Gaming Project at De Montfort University People who would otherwise be unable to play video games are now given the option. People with disabilities more integrated into society Hope to make the technology cheaper and more accessible. Used infrared light to tell where the eyes are looking and through calibration wherever the eyes are looking at the screen.

Present (Continued) Reduced hardware prices Most eye movement detection headsets cost thousands of dollars. Dr. Aldo Faisal discovered a way to reduce price. His dream is to make the technology available to the average family. Using Dr. Faisal's method the average person could make a headset for around $30. Currently method is unavailable If Dr. Faisal isn't satisfied with any offers made by businesses then he will publish the information online for free.

Future Opens up possibilites Control cars Give mobility back to disabled people Control house appliances Kitchen Entertainment Augmented reality Looking somewhere would bring information of what's in the field of vision on glasses Can look at something broken and bring up repair instructions.
