Week 9: Something that might help REAL people
Have you seen the movie The Diving Bell and the Butterfly?
If you haven't, it's about a man you is totally paralysed other than being able to blink one eye. So to communicate, a nurse counts through the alphabet and he blinks at the appropriate letter.
I thought, what a shit system. The poor guy wrote a book like this; using a simple digital system he could have written dozens more.
So, I am planning to make my own. I've been looking into a piece of software called RoboRealms, which is designed for robots to analyse environments. Shouldn't be to hard to tweak it to track eyes, ill keep you posted!
