Smartphone users could soon control the devices with their eyes.
Smartphones could be controlled with a person's eyes with new technology
The Chinese phone company Honor has unveiled a new AI eye-tracking feature that is capable of detecting when a person is looking at the screen.
The phone can differentiate between a quick glance and an intentional look and will carry out a user's action without them needing to touch it.
Honor has revealed that the technology - which works by monitoring where the user is looking through the smartphone's camera - will be available on its new Magic 6 Pro phone.
Industry expert Paolo Pescatore told MailOnline: "It's good to see this tech being tracked into categories like smartphones. For now, it feels a bit of a gimmick as a means to grab eyeballs.
"The cleverly designed feature should help it to stand out in a crowded market. Also it will help gravitate people towards the brand who are loyal to other premium players like Apple and Samsung.
"This is an area where we will see lots of innovation in order to improve the user experience through gestures, eye and motion!"
