I am an inventor and engineer and would like to ask you a few questions privately on a project I am trying to get together to help people like you. if you have the time.

Yeah that was part of it, the way the book unfolded was also suspicious, when the host said stop he did not actually stop it flipped a few pages, the book looked sectioned. Also how many saw him touch the tray, it looked like he may have palmed one of the tiles by the way he drifted his hand back down to his side.

I think he has probly 2 other sections in that book with the words bolster and bolters

I have been working pieces of this solution for a long time . there is a lot of technical speak here. the condensed explanation is an IR laser pointer that tracks the motion of your eye, and a robotic arm can follow it and you can give it commands through a hud . there is no reason why other systems you are using now cannot be part if it. But here is the explanation. I am trying to get people to help me get a kickstarter going so we can at least show proof of concept. Your input would be to know if such a system would be helpful.

My name is Lionel I have a low budget animatronics and costume shop, I am mechanical/electronics engineer . I have decades of experience in building .. well some really crazy stuff. I can send you links to my work. I fought in battlebots and have made electronically enhanced costume stuff for Adam Savage.and have done some low budget movie work and have several patents in my name for other laser hardware.

The premise is simple, using the Iris tracking system that has been around since the 80's to help people who are "locked in" be able to communicate with only eye motion to type on a keyboard. The technology has come a long way since then and it can be found now in cameras that track your iris and autofocus based on what you are looking at. The Idea was to marry that technology readily available to the X/Y microservo/stepper or a magnetic mirror device that I came up with and an IR laser (class 1 eye safe certified by FDA/CDRH) I also developed for a military trainer (and have patent on)

Okay so I will try an explain what happens here. Imagine a pair of glasses with a hud display over your right eye that has the super micro camera (from an Iphone or other) that is tracking your iris, there is a camera (micro ccd unit ) that is mounted in direct line to your right eye , the hud display is a full color image of what your right eye would normally see. but with some augmented extras. In the midst of this system is the laser. Now the laser is on an X/Y stepper, when on it tracks exactly where your eye is looking as it translates in real time . there would be a little dot in the center of your vision , the laser dot tracks where you look, Look at a doorknob, the laser dot is there shining off of it. It follows your vision. Now then we have a laser pointer basically attached to your eyeball. what do we do with it?. Well with simple photo sensors on a robotic arm you can now shine the laser dot on soda can on a table. the robotic arm tracks to it. the arm follows wherever you are looking. Very simple but there is a lot more here. The hud is designed to offer a number of options here, with your left eye you would be able LOCK the laser into place with blink commands and the eye tracker would still be active and give the user a cursor to choose options out side of the "work area" I imagine the cameras view as a circle, And around that circle would be a ring of choices and controls for the robotic arm , and you could choose them just by blinking. But it gets better still in that you can now use this same laser (capable of gigabit communications) to do things, Beyond being able to control your tv/electronics like your remote does, You can also setup receiver plates (photodiodes/tsops) to do things like turn on and off lights, turn on a tap. Anything you could control with a remote, you could control with this. you could send point to point data if you wanted, But lets take a moment and talk about the hud and the cameras. The hud is meant to extend a persons mobility by allowing them to see what they need to see without moving. The eye tracking hud would allow them to change which camera they use so they can see behind them. looks left and right , other cameras to help them navigate with them mounted to their mobility device would allow them to see how far the curb drops off The robotic arm/hand could have the camera/laser combo that they could micro control. that could reach out (tracking the laser dot) to book on a table , then once in place switch to the laser/camera in the hand and read the book, And perhaps with practice , turn the page. The system would be an easy build with a good coder it probly could be done in Raspberry PI or any quad core ARM processor (snapdragon?) There is so much more the system can do. but there you are

Sadly don't be surprised when your idea suddenly shows up as a movie or a TV show. Anyone you showed it to. I hope you had a NDA signed in blood. Quite simply hollywood can be summed up simply. IP theft is rampant even amongst those that are considered icons in the industry.
