Israeli company has developed the first completely hands-free Android
smartphone for disabled users. The 'Sesame' smartphone allows users to
control the device with head movements.
Developed by

proprietary head-tracking technology that allows the user to control the
device.

Sesame
has an advanced computer vision algorithm and a front-facing camera
that can track the user's head movements and lets them control a cursor
on screen. The feature works as a virtual finger, allowing disabled
users to do what others can with a regular smartphone.
The
smartphone's developer Giora Livne, who himself is disabled, got the
idea to develop the phone after watching a TV demonstration for a game
that can be controlled by head movements. Livne who has a background in
electrical engineering, recognized the technology’s potential to help
him and others.
Sesame recently won a
“Verizon Powerful Answers’ Award” with $1 million in prize money. Livne
is now planning to give about 30 Sesame smartphones to people with
disabilities nominated by their peers. “My life quality jumped from the
Stone Age to the smartphone age,” Livne was quoted as saying.
Recently, Samsung launched an eye tracking mouse for the disabled.
Eyecan+ allows users to browse the web as well as a compose and edit
documents through simple eye movements. The advanced eye care technology
allows users to simply point with a look and then click with a
deliberate blink to perform functions including drag and drop.
