The LG Optimus G Pro will use eye movement to stop and start video
Unfortunately for Samsung, fellow Korean manufacturer LG stole the thunder from Samsung, by announcing this very same feature one day before the introduction of the Samsung Galaxy S 4. As part of the Value Pack update for the LG Optimus G Pro, the feature called Smart Video will use the front-facing camera to track the user's eyes. Once the user's gaze moves away from the screen, the video stops and starts again when the user focuses back on the phone's screen.
The update also includes a feature called Dual Camera which uses both the back and front cameras simultaneously to take a single photograph within a photograph. Besides being part of the Value Pack update for the LG Optimus Pro, which has launched in Korea, the features also will be made part of LG's future handsets.
