CTOnews.com, Oct. 24, according to the latest content shared by netizen @ cr_C2cv, Google plans to introduce a feature called "Face tracking" into ChromeOS, which can be turned on to control the mouse and keyboard by tracking the user's face.

CTOnews.com Note: this is an accessibility feature designed for people with disabilities without arms. Google plans to launch ChromeOS version 120 (currently version 117,117). It is not clear whether the feature is limited to some Chromebook.

Google already offers a number of assistive features in ChromeOS, including real-time subtitles, high-contrast mode, reading mode, screen readers, and so on, and the upcoming introduction of facial tracking is expected to further complement the way people with disabilities interact.
