Score: 5.0/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 5, Documentation: 4, Utility: 5)

Blinkwell is an on-device eye fatigue monitor that uses MediaPipe to detect blinks and track blink rate, storing a local history. It emphasizes privacy with no video leaving the device and temporary camera access, but the project is narrowly scoped and documentation is minimal.

Target audience: end users concerned with eye health, remote workers, developers

Repository: https://blinkwell.netlify.app/ · Rust · MIT
