What is IGOOR?

IGOOR is a communication software that uses eye-tracking and artificial intelligence to help individuals with neurodegenerative diseases or other conditions express their needs and thoughts.

 

What is eye-tracking?

Eye-tracking is an infrared technology that allows you to control a computer or tablet with your eyes. It is an alternative to traditional keyboard and mouse controls, enabling users to interact with their PC or tablet through their gaze. It’s used by gamers and people with motor and cognitive disabilities.

 

Does IGOOR require eye-tracking to function?

No, eye-tracking is only necessary for users who cannot use a mouse.

 

Is IGOOR really free?

Yes, IGOOR is free, open-source software designed to be accessible to everyone without discrimination. However, some features, such as generating responses through generative AI, currently require a subscription to external services (not provided by IGOOR).

 

What are the main features of IGOOR?

IGOOR offers several features, including:

  • Editable primary needs interface
  • Integrated speech synthesis
  • Multilingual support
  • Wake-word activated dialogue interface

Take a look at the roadmap for different versions of the software.


What types of customization does IGOOR offer?

IGOOR uses artificial intelligence services to provide personalized responses based on user preferences and conversation history.


Does IGOOR require an internet connection?

Some features require an internet connection, such as using external AI services providers. However, an internal database allows for quick and offline responses (in certain versions).


What are the future developments planned for IGOOR?

Future versions of IGOOR plan to include facial recognition, remote communication via smartphone, smart home support, and open-source local AI. 

Take a look at the roadmap for different versions of the software.


Is IGOOR compatible with all hardware?

IGOOR is designed to be hardware-agnostic. It will work with the user’s existing devices and add additional features based on the available hardware.


How can I obtain IGOOR?

IGOOR will be distributed both as open source code and as exe files for various platforms. The initial versions will be available for Windows.


What will the funds raised for IGOOR be used for?

Funds raised will primarily finance the development of the software, infrastructure costs (including generative AI testing), and training related to the software’s use.


What is generative AI?

Generative artificial intelligence (generative AI) is a type of AI capable of creating new content, including conversations, stories, images, videos, and music. We use it, among other things, for predictive text based on the user’s condition to initiate or continue a dialogue.
