blog written by someone with ALS using Tobii's eyegaze system

"The Eye Tribe creates software that allows users to interact with their mobile device just by looking at it. Activate the screen, scroll websites automatically as you read and play games using your eyes! "

"During the past ten years we have developed two access technologies. EagleEyes and The Camera Mouse

"Gaze-based interaction has been around for 20 years, used mainly by people with disabilities. But the technology could be available to the masses soon, allowing users to move a cursor with their eyes, or turn the pages of an e-book without lifting a finger."

"n this video, Lianna is using her Tobii. She controls it using her eye gaze. It has a camera that follows the reflection of her cornea so she can choose what buttons she wants. It's like us clicking a mouse."

"Utawna Leap talks about her seven year old daughter's Cerebral Palsy and how teachers include her in the general education classroom."

Blog post from a parent about her son trying a Tobii device with eye gaze.

"Print eye gaze communication frames of various sizes using symbols or text. Templates with 4, 6 and 16 locations are provided. Cut out the central viewing windows and glue pages back-to-back - the talker boards are automatically reversed for the listening partner. Choose a frame style with the top buttons and click the symbols or text on the page to edit the content. This tool supports high quality printing to large format printers up to and including A3 size. Larger printing can greatly simplify use for both communication partners. A fast design of ABC spelling board is also provided. In this method the talker first selects the letter group, then glances at the dot in the appropriate coloured section to qualify the initial letter choice. Letters are arranged and coloured to simplify the second indication stage for the talker."
