EyesRhythm launches offline blink-rhythm monitoring tool
What happened
On November 8, 2026, Hacker News' front page covered EyesRhythm 1.5.0, a desktop blink-monitoring tool. It runs entirely locally, using the camera to count blink frequency and regularity and scoring them as an Ocular Rhythm Index from 0 to 100. Features include a live blink curve, a Poise head-orientation dial split into 30° segments, and a two-minute Practice guide. The report says the tool needs no account, uploads no data, supports macOS and Windows, and is free to download, with installers of 93 MB and 84 MB for the two platforms.
