tried to remember trigonometry, and how to blend it with my gadget.

This gadget blinks, to remind you should blink
This gadget has been designed to help you manage your computer hours and breaks
to protect your eyes.
It features a small eye that blinks letting you know you should blink.
By default this gadget uses the 20 20 20 rule, for every 20 minutes you should
take a break of 20 seconds and look at an object 20 feet away (6 meters).
When break time arrives a sound is being played and the eye shuts.
