The EyeCon+ project is funded by the Xjenza Malta under the FUSION R&I Go-To-Market Accelerator Programme and aims to validate an EOG-based communication platform, accommodating natural head movements, that was developed in the EyeCon project. Comprehensive user testing, involving a significant cohort of both healthy participants and individuals with motor impairments, will be conducted as they interact with grid-based graphical user interfaces, such as virtual keyboards and symbol-based interfaces. The quantitative test results obtained together with feedback gathered from these end users will be used to design and implement refinements to the developed EOG-based gaze estimation platform, with the aim of enhancing its applicability and advancing it towards commercialization.
