Eye Movement Can Operate Mobile

DEVICE prototype created by a Japanese mobile phone operator, find the latest technology using mobile phones just by moving the eye. Users can make and receive calls and play music on cell phones, it eye movements.

NTT DoCoMo, the company driver's Mbang this device, equipped with special electrodes placed on the set of earphones. Electrode serves to catch the eye movement. Electrodes earphones can read the changes in electrical currents called the electrooculogram.

NTT DoCoMo is created phones that are designed to translate that information and turn it into a form of command. By way of working like that, user can call or receive calls only with his moving their eyes to the left and right.

"The eye holds the potential of electric current, it positive currents in the cornea, and a negative flow on the retina. Changes in electrical potential is dependent on eye movement. This system worked, even though the eyes of users in a closed state, "said NTT DoCoMo spokesman, as quoted by the Telegraph.

Similarly, playing music. Music files stored in the phone can be played or stopped using the eyeball movements. In his presentation at the event Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona, a spokesman for NTT DoCoMo to practice how to work this device.

When the ball moves to the right eye, the music player will play the previous song. When the ball moves to the right eye repeatedly, the phone will jump to the next song. Meanwhile, the volume can be hardened or minimized by moving the eyeballs up and down.

NTT DoCoMo said the system is just an example, but enough to give their views on the possibility of such phones can be used in the next few years.

"In the future may only be operated gadgets with body movements, including eye movement," he said.
