In mid-January, I published the most recent in a series of writeups on Tobii's eye tracking technology for controlling user interfaces, followed a few days later by the upload of a product demonstration video captured by EVA Founder Jeff Bier at the Consumer Electronics Show. Tobii's not the only company working on the technology, of

In recent weeks, I've discussed Tobii's eye-tracking technology several times, both for its ability to monitor driver attention in vehicles, and to control next-generation operating systems' graphical user interfaces. As I mentioned last week, Tobii demonstrated its Gaze software for Windows 8 at the Consumer Electronics Show, and Engadget got a chance to take it

Shortly before Christmas, I mentioned how Sweden-based Tobii hoped to use eye-tracking algorithms in conjunction with image sensor-inclusive automobile interiors to (for example) awaken drivers when they were nodding off or alert parents when their behind-the-wheel teenagers were paying more attention to text messaging sessions on their cellphones than on the roadway ahead of them.

Back in mid-November, I discussed taxicab drivers' backlash at the increasing presence of cameras inside vehicles…ostensibly for driver safety reasons (to compel would-be evildoers to suppress their urges, or at minimum to capture in-progress crime evidence for subsequent prosecution) but (the drivers believe) also for Big Brother employee monitoring purposes. Such cameras aren't restricted solely
