In this interview from Double Tap at the Zero Project Conference in Vienna, hosts Steven Scott and Shaun Preece spoke with Eduardo Jauregui, the co-founder and CEO of Irisbond, a high-tech company that specialises in eye-tracking technology for communication for people with disabilities.
Eduardo explained that the eye-tracking technology developed by Irisbond allows people with disabilities, such as ALS or cerebral palsy, to communicate using their eyes. They discussed how the technology differs from other eye-tracking systems, specifically the Apple Vision Pro, and explored the potential for eye-tracking to become a fundamental communication method in the future.
They also delved into the advancements in eye-tracking technology, particularly with the use of artificial intelligence, large action models, and machine learning algorithms. The conversation focused on the practical day-to-day applications of the technology, including its use for individuals with ALS in interacting with computers and for children with cerebral palsy in educational settings.
