The report, which quoted an anonymous Samsung employee, stated that one example of how eye scrolling would work is when a person is reading an article and reach the end of the page.

The software would reportedly be able to detect the eye's movements and automatically scroll down to the next paragraph or page.

Samsung has already scheduled a press conference in New York City on March 14, and many media outlets have predicted they'll be unveiling their next-generation smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy s4.

The company has already trademarked the terms "Samsung Eye Scroll" and "Eye Pause" according to The New York Times.
