Abstract
This document outlines a method for implementing an eye tracking device as a method of electrical wheelchair control. Through the use of measured gaze points, it is possible to translate a desired movement into a physical one. This form of interface does not only provide a form of transportation for those with severe disability but also allow the user to get a sense of control back into their lives.
