Write by eye

It is the dream of every writer or writer living: just look at the page and the letter appears automatically.

Neuroscientist Jean Lorenceau

Jean Lorenceau, a neuroscientist at the University of Pierre and Marie Curie in Paris (France), has developed an interesting interface that allows eye movement tracking.

With just a few minutes of practice, one can learn how to control the cursor on the screen, according to Current Biology experts.

However, this is not the invention of the writers or poets. Lorenceau said the subjects were paralyzed and wanted a method of communication, such as those with Lou Gehrig syndrome.

The system works by setting the camera on the user's head. And the camera is responsible for tracking the eye movement, every 30 seconds and transferring information to the computer.

If users move their eyes like they are writing something, the camera will accurately transmit that motion to the cursor on the screen, helping them to 'write'.
