A Computer Game That Can Be Operated By Eye Movement

In an invention that could go a long way in helping the disabled, students have developed a computer game that can be operated by eye movement.To play the game , the user wears special glasses containing an infrared light and a webcam that records the movement of one eye.

The webcam is linked to a laptop where a computer programme syncs the player's eye movements to the game. The prototype game is very simple but students believe that the technology behind it could be adapted to create more sophisticated games of Dell latitude d610 battery and applications such as wheelchairs and computer cursors controlled by eye movements.

Christopher Scott of Miami was also sentenced Monday to three years of supervised release after pleading guilty in September 2008 to conspiracy of acer aspire 5050 battery , unauthorized access to computer systems, access device fraud and identity theft.

Scott's expertise was hacking wireless networks. His sentencing came four days after Albert Gonzalez was sentenced to 20 years in prison for leading a scheme that cost companies , banks and insurers nearly $200 million.He pleaded guilty last year to breaking into the computer networks of major retailers, including TJX Cos., BJ's Wholesale Club and the restaurant chain Dave & Buster's.

"The game that they've developed is quite simple, but we think it has enormous potential, particularly because it doesn't need lots of expensive equipment... We hope it could ultimately provide entertainment options for people who have very little movement," said Aldo Faisal, the team's supervisor from the Department of Bioengineering, ICL.

"In future, people might be able to blink to turn pages in an electronic book, or switch on their favourite song, with the roll of an eye," he said, according to an Imperial release . One of the major benefits of the new technology is that it is inexpensive, using off-the-shelf hardware.

"Remarkably, our undergraduates have created this piece of neurotechnology using bits of kit that you can buy in a shop, such as webcams," Faisal said.Ian Beer, third year undergraduate from the ICL Department of Computing, said: "This game is just an early prototype for VGP-BPS9 , but we're really excited that from our student project we've managed to come up with something that could ultimately help people who have really limited movement."
