For my doctoral work at Stanford I am working on developing ways to use eye-gaze to interact with computing devices. The project called GUIDe (Gaze-enhanced User Interface Design) allows you to do everyday actions of interacting with a computer using eye-gaze. You can surf the web without having to use a mouse, switch applications by simply looking at them in an expose-like view etc. For more information check out the GUIDe website.

I have a suggestion after reading the article in Tech Review.
You could have a function that raises whatever you’re looking at. Since the error rate is still about 20%, the radius of the screen being raised could cover that. You’re already doing that like Windows magnifier.
But the new feature you can add is that whatever is relevant can be higlighted. e.g. links could glow so if you’re radius covers 5 lines of links, only one of them glows so you know which one you actually click.
Same applies for text if you’re trying to move to the middle of a word, you highlight the letter the cursor will be in front of.
Also, you should only have two keys just like two buttons on the mouse and all the drag-click should be done the same way. Holding the key should give you drag ability etc.
Just some suggestions.
