EyeDraw: enabling children with severe motor impairments to draw with their eyes

paper

Comments: Franck, Murat

EyeDraw is a system which runs using an Eyegaze system to allow drawing with the eyes. Many disabled people have used eye-tracking systems for years to use a computer and to communicate. The EyeDraw system was developed and tested with 4 users. With feedback from the users, a 2nd version was developed and some improvements were made to enable easier use. Users gave positive feedback, though drawing was still difficult. The paper mentions a 3rd version under development.

The EyeDraw system is the most successful application I have seen for drawing with the eyes. It seems to solve the Midas touch problem somewhat, and the users can actually draw with it.
