Comcast says more than 48 million Americans have physical or mobility disabilities. To address those viewers, Xfinity X1 eye control is a "web-based remote for tablets and computers that pairs with an existing eye gaze system and allows viewers with a single glance to change the channel, access the DVR or search for programs." “Changing the channel on a TV is something most of us take for granted but until now, it was a near-impossible task for millions of viewers,” says Comcast VP of Accessibility Tom Wlodkowski. “When you make a product more inclusive you create a better experience for everyone and we’re hoping our new X1 feature makes a real difference in the lives of our customers.”
