Micrsft has develped a new smartphne app that interprets eye signals and translates them int letters,allwing peple with mtr neurne disease t cmmunicate with thers frm a phne.
The GazeSpeak app cmbines a smartphne's camera with artificial intelligence t recgnize eye mvements in real time and cnvert them int letters,wrds and sentences.
Fr peple suffering frm ALS(渐冻症),als knwn as mtr neurne disease,eye mvement can be the nly way they are able t cmmunicate.

“T mitigate the drawback,we created GazeSpeak,an eyegesture cmmunicatin system that runs n a smartphne,and is designed t be lwcst,rbust,prtable and easy t learn.”
The app is used by the listener by pinting their smartphne at the speaker.A chart that can be stuck t the back f the smartphne is then used by the speaker t determine which eye mvements t make in rder t cmmunicate.
The sticker shws fur grids f letters,which each crrespnd t a different eye mvement.By lking up,dwn,left r right,the speaker selects which grids the letters they want belng t.The artificial intelligence algrithm(计算程序) is then able t predict the wrd r sentence they are trying t say.
