*Beginning
Eye Tracking is a new tool that Apple has released that will change the way people use their iOS and iPadOS devices‹.
Eye tracking changes the game.
Eye Tracking is a feature that lets people with disabilities use their gadgets by moving their eyes alone. For setup and testing, this function uses the front-facing camera, and all the data that is used is kept safe on the device². Eye Tracking can be used in any game and doesn’t need any extra hardware².
How It Works
Dwell Control lets users move between app features and turn each one on or off. This lets them use extra features like real buttons, swipes, and other hand movements just by looking at the screen².
There are more features
Apple has released more mobility tools in addition to Eye Tracking. Using the iPhone’s Taptic Engine, Music Haptics gives people who are deaf or hard of hearing a new way to enjoy music. With Vocal Shortcuts, users can do things by making their own sounds². When using an iPhone or iPad in a moving car, Vehicle Motion Cues can help keep you from getting motion sickness².
Date of Release
These improvements are going to come out later this year. The news comes before Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), which is coming up next month.
Final Thoughts
With these new tools, Apple continues to push for design that works for everyone. Apple’s dedication to giving all users the best experience possible is shown by the addition of Eye Tracking to iOS and iPadOS devices.
