Tobii has developed a device that helps gamers track their gaze in fast paced games. Such as Fortnite or League of Legends.
The device tracks the eyes of players using a camera, which allows the software to clearly determine the direction of the subject's gaze, and in some cases, behavior patterns. By tracking the player’s gaze and head tilt, the gadget helps identify “blind spots”,
reports CNN.
According to Martin Lindgren, the head of the gaming department of Tobii, if the player’s gaze is lost, the device helps to return him again. This is convenient when playing games such as Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and others.
The device is equipped with a series of sensors and two cameras. It can be mounted using magnets or a USB cable. To fix the gaze, you need to look at specific points on the screen.
Eye tracking technology is used by professional e-sports players. They analyze data to create effective strategies and win tournaments.
Earlier, scientists from the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) at the University of Chicago were inspired by
device of chameleons and have developed a method of stretching and deformation of liquid crystals to obtain various colors. To do this, they created a thin polymer film filled with liquid crystal droplets, and then changed it to get a color change system that can be used for smart coatings, sensors, and even electronics.
