Eye-tracking technology gives patients a voice

For patients suffering from neuromuscular diseases, an eye-traacking technology may improve communication abilities. ClinicAll has developed a system that tracks eye movement to allow for communication in real-time.

The ClinicAll module uses a special camera to follow patients eye movements over an on-screen keyboard. The special software is then able to convert these movements into commands to the screen cursor or interpret a blink as a click without skipping a beat.

The ClinicAll bedside terminals can be adapted into many existing softwares. The eye-tracking technology is installed on the ClinicAll terminal underneath a screen with a magnetic mounting system. The module is easy to handle for nurse and physicians, as well as being portable for the move from bed to bed.

ClinicAll is not only confined to the hospital bed. With cases of long-term caregivers and family members, ClinicAll is able to assist patients in the comfort of their own home.
