Who is a good candidate for EagleEyes?
- EagleEyes is a system for controlling the computer using your eyes.
- EagleEyes can take a while to learn to use. Most people who use
EagleEyes have tried other access technologies and are not able to use them.
- If a person has no physical disabilities then usually the person would use
a mouse or track pad to control the computer.
- If a person can speak clearly then the person might use a voice control
system like "Dragon Dictate",

- If a person has some reliable voluntary muscle control then the person
might use a switch interface
- If a person has voluntary head control then the person might use a head
control system like "Camera Mouse",
www.cameramouse.org
- A person who can only move his or her eyes voluntarily is a candidate for
an eye control system like EagleEyes. A plus would be if the person does
not have head spasms. Many people who begin using EagleEyes have never
had a communication method and are totally locked in. Often it is impossible
to know of their cognitive ability before using EagleEyes as they have had
no way to express themselves.
