In 2010, company CEO & founder Mick Ebeling spearheaded the creation of the Eyewriter, eye-tracking glasses with free, open-source software that enabled a renowned graffiti artist paralyzed by ALS to draw and communicate using only his eyes. The technology was lauded in Time magazine’s “Top 50 Inventions of 2010,” was named to Gizmodo’s 8 Incredible Health Innovations that Transform Lives, is part of the permanent collection at NY MOMA, and became the subject of the award-winning documentary “Getting Up.”
