Abstract: Computer technology is opening new paths and opportunities for persons with serious functional disabilities. Eyegaze is an advanced aid which allows a person to operate a computer by eye movement alone. In this study, persons with extremely limited mobility have been enlisted to compare computer operation using eye movements (with Eyegaze) versus computer operation using a head-controlled mouse. Eyegaze is perceived as being physically easier, but shows a higher degree of static muscular strain. Working with Eyegaze requires individual adaptation, a high degree of attention and a separate, quiet workplace. Technically, Eyegaze today is of somewhat limited use since the software is text-based and takes up a lot of the computer's RAM. Datortekniken öppnar nya vägar och möjligheter för personer med grava rörelsehandikapp. Eyegaze är ett avancerat hjälpmedel som innebär att man kan styra en dator med ögonrörelser. Personer med mycket begränsad rörlighet har i studien fått jämföra att styra dator med ögonrörelser (EYEGAZE) med att styra dator med huvudmus. Eyegaze upplevs som fysiskt lättare men uppvisar högre grad av statisk muskelbelastning. Att arbeta med Eyegaze kräver individuell anpassning, hög uppmärksamhetsgrad och en avskild, lugn arbetsplats. Tekniskt sett har Eyegaze i dagsläget en något begränsad användbarhet då programvaran är textbaserad och kräver stort utrymme i datoms intemminne.
