You stop at a red light and stare at a sign. A camera above the
sign notices you are looking at the sign and calculates what part
of the sign you are staring at.
Now you notice that you are controlling a little triangle or red
dot with your eyes, and start interacting with the sign.
This
is where the novelty of the advertisers comes into use, but it
is beyond the first half of the baking of this idea.

I like it but only if it's not used for advertising. |

1. Useful prompt to look away and not engage with the system |
|
| |
2. What if two people look at the sign? Would this be better implemented on a home tele-screen type setup? |
|
| |
//If two people look// Pong game. |
|
| |
Really, the calculation has to be done without the bias of control if the advertisers want clean data on which bits of the sign work better. |
|
| |
//not used for advertising//
Behavioural change glasses might be a valid implementation. Mild electric shock optional. |
|
| |
No need for electric shock. You have enough shock when a
person realizes everybody knows what he or she is looking at.
Also multiple red dots make it all the more interesting. |
|
| |
In a crowd, embarrassment is shielded. Maybe, the dots are the same colour as the glasses or a same colour dot is placed on lookers forehead? |
|
| |
A you would actually need is lots of stickers that say "you are
looking at this" and the system works itself. You could make
millions selling the system to advertisers who are none the
wiser. |

When I was young I had a large fluorescent yellow pin badge which had very small black writing in the middle saying "stop looking at my badge" |
|
| |
I’m imagining a sort of laser tag to alleviate the
boredom of being transported in a self driving car. |
