Yeah, I do.  Call Vivian at Digital Vision.  They're still in business. 
They might even answer a quesiton now.  Vivian, at the time, was the only
person I knew who had worse allergies than me.  She sounded horrible over
the phone and had the reddest nose of anyone I knew.  Just a bit of
trivia.

If memory serves, they made a version that worked in a IIe and a GS. 
ComputerEyesGS was color and worked in the GS only.

Not me.  I had the source code for ComputerEyesGS a long time ago when a
company wanted me to write a version of Allison for it.  Sparce comments.
Even stranger was the way they calibrated the board.   Problem was, the
board wasn't up to the task.  It was slow, slow, and in the end would have
only done a third of the stuff the AST board could do.

See above.
