Eye Scrolling In Samsung Galaxy S IV

Kaustubh Katdare · 2013-03-04T18:23:38+00:00

Samsung Galaxy S IV (Galaxy S4), which will be unveiled on March 14 is said to have an exciting new feature - say the people who've been given the early access. The Samsung Galaxy S4 will be able to track your eye movements and perform actions based on them. For example, if you 'stare' at the bottom of the web page you are browsing, the phone will quickly scroll down automatically. It's no wonder that technologies like Kinect will eventually make it to the smartphones. Gestures are finding their way into smartphones - I'm not sure how it will be utilised by the developers in apps that are totally interesting. I can imagine the immediate use of eye scrolling in Samsung Galaxy S IV - gaming! Playing angry birds with eye movements would be cooler, what do you say?

Yeah, I read that news as well. Sammobile's leaks haven't been proven wrong yet. I'm curious to know if Samsung's included new type of Sensors in the phone or it's just some firmware wizardry? If yes, I can't wait to have it in my Galaxy 😀

I guess the Smart Stay feature is already there in the Galaxy S3, where timeout doesn't occur until you look away from the screen.

Yeah. But I'm curious to know how the scrolling will work. We're just a few hours away from the official launch.
