Smartphones are getting smarter every day, but new technology developed by Honor has taken this concept one step further. You will now be able to control your smartphones with your eyes. Honor’s artificial intelligence-based eye tracking technology was introduced with the Honor Magic 6 series. Now it is preparing to be available globally. So when is it coming? Here are the details…
Honor to start offering eye tracking technology on August 27
Starting August 27 with MagicOS 8.0, this revolutionary feature will be integrated into Honor’s latest flagship devices. With eye tracking technology, Honor will enable users to interact with their smartphones in a more natural way than ever before.
You no longer need your fingers to open a notification, launch an app or simply select an item on a screen. All you need to do is just look and move your eyes. This technology will be a great convenience, especially for users with full hands.
For example, you want to browse recipes while cooking or scroll down your phone’s screen while reading a text, but your hands are busy. That’s where eye tracking comes in. Honor’s AI-powered system detects where your eyes are looking and recognizes them as commands.
Eye tracking technology will not only facilitate daily use, but also accessibility. For users with limited motor skills, this technology will be a new and comfortable way to control their smartphones.
Honor has released a video of Bernard Muller, an ALS patient, sharing his experiences with the technology. Thanks to this technology, Muller can use his phone comfortably, communicate with the outside world and even create artistic works supported by artificial intelligence.
The eye-tracking technology that will enter our lives with Honor will not only track your eye movements, but will also work integrated with artificial intelligence to analyze your intentions. As Honor monitors your eye movements, it uses artificial intelligence to understand the intention behind them.
So the device can detect not only where you’re looking, but also what you want to do. For example, do you just want to quickly glance at a notification and pass it by, or do you want to look at the details? AI comes into play to understand this subtle difference.
