The EyeWriter is a low-cost eye tracking system originally designed for paralyzed graffiti artist Tempt1. The EyeWriter system uses inexpensive cameras and open-source computer vision software to track the wearer's eye movements.[1]
EyeWriter was conceived by Mick Ebeling[2] and developed at Ebeling's home[3] in Venice Beach by artists and engineers from the Free Art & Technology Lab, Graffiti Research Lab and OpenFrameworks teams, including Zachary Lieberman, Evan Roth, James Powderly, Theo Watson and Chris Sugrue.[4]
The project has been recognized with numerous awards including being honored by Time as one of the Top 50 inventions of 2010,[5] the 2010 Prix Ars Electronica,[6] the 2010 FutureEverything Award[7] and featured on NPR[8] and TED.[9]
EyeWriter was featured in 2009 at the CREAM International Festival for Arts & Media in Yokohama.[10] Tempt1 was also featured in 2009 projected on Kyoto City Hall.[11] EyeWriter was part of the Talk to Me exhibit at MoMA on display from July 24 until November 7, 2011.[12]
