Invention Idea #7: Eye-movement- tracking goggles that would replace the mouse. Good Idea?

Pretty good idea. When you blink does that count as clicking?

Actually, this idea has some limitations. When a user visits a webpage, their eye will scan the page very rapidly to see what is available and then decide where they want to click. It could get extremely annoying to have the cursor bouncing all over the screen (if it could even keep up with the rapid eye movements) when all a person is trying to do is see what their options are.It would be especially difficult when trying to highlight, drag & drop, etc. Overall, it's a good idea, but I see some challenges.

Hmm...that IS a good idea. And it would be pretty easy to create, I think. Video games already have the capability to read light (a la the Wii).

It seems like a pretty easy leap to read eyes instead of a controller. Cool.

Especially good idea for the physically impaired. I could see it taking quite a while to develop.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
