Now You Can Control Any Win 8 Kit With Your Eyes

iComp writes "It's all gestures and eyeball-tracking at CES this year, with Tobii releasing a USB peripheral that adds control-by-sight to any Windows PC and Lenovo upgrading its Yoga to finger-watching. Tobii demonstrated its eyeball-tracking technology at CES last year, but this time it is announcing a 5,000 unit production run of a USB bar which can be stuck to the bottom of the monitor of any Windows 8 PC to start tracking eyeballs. Lenovo isn't even waiting that long. Although it is only tracking fingers, it's adding the capability to existing Yoga laptops courtesy of eyeSight Tech."

Really?

The question is:

Can this tech detect the shifty eyes of Win8 users searching for the Start-Button and display one?

cross-eyed

How many people are going to end up cross-eyed from trying the pinch-to-zoom feature?

Hey there!

It looks like you're pissed off at the new interface! Can I:

1) Tell you to use it anyway
2) Not tell you about alternatives
3) Not show you how to install a different window manager
4) Offer you a paid upgrade to Win9

Oh

At first i read: you can control windows by your 8 eyes. But then i realized i am not a spider.

They used to say...

...that Windows Me systems would crash if you looked at them funny.

Now Lenovo has turned that into a reality with Windows 8!

Just search the forums for 15 hours to watch some dudes argue with each other about the best way to get it working. Then give up because you can only get it to track one eye.
