1. Topic: A new piece of technology allows people to control their computers through their glasses.
2. Article Title: $30 gadget lets you control computer with your eyes
3. Article Source: CNN.com
4. Summary: This gadget allows people to control computers using their eyes. This kind of technology is made out of simple items that all together cost about $30 dollars. This device is especially beneficial to people who are disabled and/or can't control a keyboard and computer mouse with their limbs.
5. Reaction: I highly acknowledge this piece of technology as affordable and efficient. I think it's great that this technology that seems so advanced and costly can be produced at a reasonable price. I think it's amazing that the people that engineered this device have made it possible for eye movement to translate into computer control. This affects me because I'm lazy, and the less I have to move, the happier I am. If a piece of technology can allow me to surf the web without lifting a single finger, I'm definitely interested in it.
6. World Impact: This affects the world by opening a new window of opportunity to the field of technology. For example, if a man had become disabled while in an accident of any kind, and he became paralyzed, he would lose a lot of freedom, including the freedom of playing sports, walking, and using the computer easily. With this device, all he has to to do is wear glasses, and he is instantly in control of the way he uses technology. This device would help people all over the world, especially the disabled. I can see this device being sold at medical support stores everywhere.
