Introducing the only app you should use while driving: Theia.
A team of Cornell Tech students worked with Bloomberg during last semester’s company challenges to create an app to alert sleepy and distracted drivers when their eyes start to drift.
Team Theia, comprised of MBA and MEng students, developed the Android app to combat the thousands of traffic accidents caused by tired and unfocused drivers each year. Using an algorithm, the app tracks real-time eye movement and alerts drivers when they appear to be dozing off or distracted.
Unlike other gaze-tracking systems, Theia doesn’t require infrared light or external accessories. All a driver needs is a smartphone.
