Eye tracking equipment has the ability to record the physical eye movements of a human being. With this taken into consideration, one approach could involve asking each volunteer to use their imagination and eyes to draw.
With the pupil taking on the roll of the pencil, how well can we use our eye in conjunction with our imagination, to create image?
The outcomes not only illustrate the possibility of using the eye as a creative tool. But also highlights the way individuals picture objects in their minds.
Following this using the eye tracking equipment an experiment could be conducted that investigates the way in which we see letter forms.
By displaying each individual character of a given typeface at a large scale and recording human eye scanning response a new typeface could be developed.

Cool, Love it!
I pointed out that negative comment on your blog recently to Acuity.
I just saw a tweet from Jon at Acuity about your project! Nice.
Once upon a time I wrote about mice and eyes http://usableworld.com.au/2008/03/08/eye-tracking-will-replace-my-mouse/
I wonder whether people will recognise images created with the eyes? My guess is, yes!
I will publish your blog posts widely on Tobii social platforms. I am @tobiieyetracker and @jamesbreeze on Twitter
