Remote Eye Tracker Launches on Kickstarter

A new remote eye tracker is making its debut on Kickstarter.com. The eyeCharm, by Nuia, is an eye tracking accessory for the Microsoft Kinect. It includes specialized optics and an infrared camera and attaches to the front of the Kinect to add eye gaze computer control.

An answer the problem of traditionally high priced eye tracking equipment, the eyeCharm costs $60, which also includes apps for Windows functionality and a developers SDK. They are expecting to launch the product in July.

With only 5 days left, they are roughly $5000 away from their $100,000 pledge goal on Kickstarter. We are always happy to see new eye tracking companies and encourage anyone who is interested, to check out their Kickstarter page.
