Wink-activated iPod controller
March 5th, 2008 by Staff writers, CNET News.comA researcher at Osaka University in Japan has developed a device that allows users to control their iPod music player via eye winks.
Called the KomeKami Switch, or Temple Switch, the gadget uses infrared sensors and a microcomputer to detect differences in the movement of your skin when you wink.

The KomeKami Switch can be clipped to eyeglasses or headphones and will respond to various combinations of winks by remotely controlling play, pause, replay, and skip functions of the iPod, says its developer, Kazuhiro Taniguchi, a researcher at the university's Graduate School of Engineering.
