it's open source! (that means it's free and you can use, but not sell the source code).

for eye tracking, you need an eye tracker. commercial ones look expensive. I'm sure it's possible to home-brew and I know software that recognizes and can track movements on a camera is available. artists use it. it will also work with a head pointer or a mouse. PC or Linux at the moment, looks like they are planning to port it to digital assistants. Looks like a good way to take notes. does character prediction and will offer a character to complete words as the most likely next used. supports custom dictionaries.
