I'm hoping this isn't a repeat (no search feature), but I thought this was amazing.

It's an open source project called The EyeWriter, it's truly awesome. It's a system to track eye movement and effectively use it to draw pictures based on said movement.
[quote= The EyeWriter]Members of Free Art and Technology (FAT), OpenFrameworks, the Graffiti Research Lab, and The Ebeling Group communities have teamed-up with a legendary LA graffiti writer, publisher and activist, named Tony Quan, aka TEMPTONE. Tony was diagnosed with ALS in 2003, a disease which has left him almost completely physically paralyzed… except for his eyes. This international team is working together to create a low-cost, open source eye-tracking system that will allow ALS patients to draw using just their eyes. The long-term goal is to create a professional/social network of software developers, hardware hackers, urban projection artists and ALS patients from around the world who are using local materials and open source research to creatively connect and make eye art.[/quote]
Here's the link to the official site for the project:

Thought it was awesome, and I know some of you guys have some free time, hopefully someone finds this as cool as I do.
Rated :h:
I want to do this, but I don't have a camera that tracks IR.
