There was a third-party app to snap pictures with winks: winky on github. This app gets the eye gesture detection service using reflection and uses it to take pictures. But the service is unavailable since XE11.
Is there a way to detect winks in a Google Glass running on XE12? Glasses now support taking pictures with winks (which can be configured from settings), but is there any service available in GDK to detect winks? Or is there any event listener that fires when a wink is detected?

After February 25, 2020, this update removes the need and ability to use your Google account on Glass. It also removes Glass' connection to backend services.
Camera: Google Glass has the ability to take 5 MP photos and record 720p HD video. Glass Enterprise Edition 2 has an improved 8MP 80° FOV camera. Display: The Explorer version of Google Glass uses a liquid crystal on silicon (based on an LCoS chip from Himax), field-sequential color system, LED illuminated display.
No, the Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2 has no GPS capability.
Activate Glass: Tap the touchpad to turn the display on. Swipe forward and back: Swipe forward to move right on your timeline, swipe backwards to move left through items on your timeline. To quickly navigate your timeline, swipe with two fingers, and you'll see a zoomed out view of the timeline.
We're using the wink detector in one of the projects I'm working on. Our code is open source:

I can half-answer your question, there doesn't seem to be an official way to do it.
Looking at my Glass device, this seems to be the sensor that picks up on winking activity.
Looking through the GDK docs, I can't find any reference to this sensor or how to develop with it. This probably means that as of now, Google doesn't want you to detect winks on Glass.
