There's a [url="http://www.engadget.com/tag/bionics/"]lot of research[/url] to help the spinal cord or stroke-injured become more self-sufficient, but it often takes some [url="http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/17/mind-operated-robot-arm-helps-paralyzed-woman/"]exotic paraphernalia[/url]. To buck that trend, scientists from Imperial College London showed that subjects could perform relatively hard tasks like writing messages and playing Pong using [url="http://www.engadget.com/tag/eye+tracking/"]eye movement[/url] -- with a mere $35-worth of parts. They even showed how well the system worked, with subjects scoring within 20 percent of an able-bodied person after a scant 10 minutes of practice. The tracker works with two video console cameras and a pair of eyeglasses that, after calibration, can precisely track the pupils -- allowing them to control a cursor or move a paddle. The researchers also figured out how to "click" the eye-mouse by winking, and can even use more precise adjustments to calculate gaze depth -- meaning subjects will be able to perform more complex tasks in the future, like guide a motorized wheelchair. While by [url="http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/24/northeastern-university-students-develop-eye-controlled-robotic-arm-to-feed-patients/"]no means[/url] the [url="http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/video-neovisus-gaze-prototype-enables-handsfree-computer-contro/"]first[/url] eye-tracking [url="http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/15/students-create-affordable-eye-tracking-tablet-for-the-disabled/"]system[/url] we've seen, it's by far the most economical.
