Tobii demos gaze control of StarCraft II It's no secret that we love Tobii's magical eye-tracking system. And seriously, what's not to love? With Tobii, your computer knows exactly where you're looking (practically down to the pixel), enabling intuitive and effortless interaction that's like nothing you've ever experienced before. Once you try it, you immediately understand that this is the future of computer interaction. So, what can Tobii do for you? We've seen a few examples, but let's talk about what's really important: gaming. Specifically, StarCraft II, the newest member of arguably one of the most competitive multiplayer franchises in gaming history. For serious players, this is a game where speed and efficiency are the difference between winning and losing, and the sheer volume of actions that you're able to take per minute is a reliable way of differentiating amateurs from pros. At the 2013 Game Developer's Conference, Tobii demonstrated exactly what's possible when you're able to add a layer of eyeball control to StarCraft II, and even if you're just a casual gamer, the potential here should blow your mind. Keep in mind that if the demo video seems, um, uneventful, that's because all Tobii demos are like this on video. The dude playing the game is controlling some of the functions by moving his eyeballs and pushing one single button, and nothing else. Tobii has got to be one of the most boring demos to watch, but that's part of the point: it's gloriously effortless for the user. Just listen to Fredrik Lindh from Tobii R&D explain to you what he's got going here, and if he can't get you excited about this tech, nobody can.
