Why stop there? Let's embrace eye tracking technology!: Anybody heard of eye tracking technology? As a person with Muscular Dystrophy who can't move much, I use the Quick Glance 2 from EyeTech Systems. It beautifully integrates with my computer, allowing me to access everything quickly and easily with my eye. Although this thread is about multi-touch technology, the point I'm trying to make is that supporting alternative ways of accessing computer hardware and software opens the door to so many people and uses. Why limit ourselves to mice and keyboards when clearly we have advanced as a nation to achieve so much more?
