Show HN:我开发了一款 macOS 应用,帮助你与屏幕保持距离
3 分•作者: sparkhee93•8 个月前
大家好,
如果你和我一样,你每天(和晚上)的大部分时间都花在电脑上。我经常发现,当我专注于工作时,我的姿势会越来越差,而且我的脸最终会离屏幕很近。在一个工作日里,当我最终拔掉插头时,我的眼睛很难聚焦在远处的物体上。这对我来说已经成为一个足够大的问题,所以我决定创建一个应用程序来帮助我保持脸部与屏幕的距离。
现在,我可以选择使用一个内置计时器的简单通知,但就像所有提醒通知一样,它们很快就变成了噪音,我最终只是忽略了它。我需要一些东西来主动迫使我向后移动。这就是 FarSight 的作用所在。
它使用你的摄像头来测量你的距离,如果它检测到你正在靠近屏幕达到一定时间,就会模糊整个屏幕。我让它不会非常烦人和具有干扰性(例如,每次你越过界限时就模糊屏幕),但足以起到帮助作用。自从创建它以来,我每天都在使用它,它确实帮助我缓解了眼疲劳、复视,而且令人惊讶的是,也改善了我的姿势。
我不确定是否会永远免费提供它,但我首先想发布它来征求反馈。我只有 MacOS 版本的应用程序,如果它有足够多的用户感兴趣,我将投资制作 Windows 版本。

另外,如果有人想知道,不会收集任何数据,并且应用程序使用期间的快照不会被保存,仅用于计算距离。

Hey everyone,<p>If you're anything like me, you spend a good chunk of your day (and night) on your computer. I often find that when I'm zoned in, my posture gets worse and worse and my face ends up being really close to the screen. And over a course of a workday, when I finally unplug, my eyes have a hard time focusing on things that are far away. This has become a big enough problem for me that I decided to create an app to help me keep my face far enough from the screen.<p>Now, I could've gone with a simple notification with a timer built into it but, as with all reminder notification, they soon become noise for me and I end up just dismissing it. I needed something to actively force me to move back. Which is where FarSight comes in.<p>It uses your camera to gauge your distance and blurs the entire screen if it detects that you are getting close enough for a certain period of time. I made it so that it won't be extremely annoying and disruptive (e.g. blurring the screen every time you cross the line) but just enough of a nuisance to be helpful. I've been using it everyday since creating it and it's definitely helped me with eye strain, double vision, and surprisingly, my posture as well.<p>I'm not sure if I'll keep it free forever but I wanted to release it first to ask for feedback. I only have the app in MacOS so if it has enough interest, I'll invest into making Windows counterpart.<p><a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/farsight-restore-your-eyes/id6753566841?mt=12">https://apps.apple.com/us/app/farsight-restore-your-eyes/id6...</a><p>Also, in case anyone is wondering, no data is collected and the snapshots during the app's usage are not saved but only used to calculate the distance.
