Gaze Gaming Tech Promises Faster Eye-Controlled Interaction

NewScientist is reporting that further research is progressing on new types of user input devices. Specifically, "gaze gaming," a technology that promises faster interaction using only your eyes. Currently technology for sight-based interaction is far too slow for practical applications in things like gaming. "Eye-gaze systems bounce infrared light from LEDs at the bottom of a computer monitor and track a person's eye movements using stereo infrared cameras. This setup can calculate where on a screen the user is looking with an accuracy of about 5 mm."

or specifically one eye for a click (Then you could get left and right clicks) I can see it now: all the Apple fanboys poking out one of their eyes to make themselves "compatible".
