which means users wouldn have to touch the screen itself. In user trials this increases the speed of successful button selection by 22 per cent and therefore reduces the amount of time the driver is looking at the screen with their eyes off the road.

Lateral and axial movement of the eye is perceived then by the user as a shift in this pattern of pinhole light."
"Our design has a large'partial'eye box in the sense that it's easy for a user to see part of the pattern when partially aligned,
"That partial pattern indicates how the user needs to realign. We believe this is the first time such a'layered
Determining the common set of perceptual cues between different users and accounting for differences in pupil size and corneal shape was another important consideration.
Emerging light-field-based near-eye displays could use such patterns for user alignment straight out of the box."

It is employing a new AI machine-learning system that the online retailer built in-house to boost the prominence and weight of verified customer purchase reviews, those marked as helpful by other users and newer, more up-to-date critiques
Where users cannot see in person what the products are like before they buy them, the ratings and reviews of users who have bought supposedly them before can make

They post fake, inflationary reviews or pay users to do so on their behalf. The practice known as stroturfingfake grassroots campaigns is widespread across a variety of sites and services.
The reviews of the fixed product will be used to outweigh older ones of the broken product to create a more consistent and useful rating of the product users would receive now.
To maintain user trust, more and more sites that host user reviews will have to implement smarter and smarter systems to prevent abuse.
