Head-tracking

LG has announced the latest Tone Free true wireless earphones, including a flagship pair that combine active noise cancellation with head-tracking spatial audio for an immersive mobile listening experience.

Although there are various systems that detect quadriplegics' head movements, most such setups are limited to the control of wheelchairs. Such is not the case, however, with the MagTrack system.

While there already are body movement-tracking systems, many incorporate cumbersome wearables, or require the person to move about in front of cameras. A new technology, however, gets the job done simply using threads placed flat against the skin.

For those with disabilities who are unable to use a mouse or a touchscreen, mass-produced devices can become more of a hindrance than a help. This is why a Turkish designer says he came up with GlassOuse, which puts the capabilities of a mouse on a pair of glasses.

Umoove has developed innovative face tracking technology that allows users to navigate a game on their iOS device just by facing in the direction they want to go. The Umoove Experience app that demonstrates the technology is available for free from the iTunes store.
