Area of Science:

  • Computer Vision
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Traditional eye gaze tracking systems often require specialized hardware and are sensitive to environmental conditions.
  • Head motion and varying illumination present significant challenges for accurate gaze estimation in real-world applications.
  • Existing methods can be costly and complex, limiting their widespread adoption in low-cost human-computer interfaces.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel, view-based eye gaze tracking system for human-computer interaction (HCI).
  • To address challenges in head motion, illumination variations, and usability within a low-cost framework.
  • To achieve high accuracy comparable to existing remote gaze trackers without specialized hardware.

Main Methods:

  • Combining feature detection and tracking algorithms for automatic setup and robustness to lighting.
  • Utilizing neural network analysis to handle non-linear gaze mapping under free-head conditions.
  • Employing a standard commercial webcam operating in the visible light spectrum.

Main Results:

  • The system successfully classifies user gaze direction across a 15-zone graphical interface.
  • Achieved a 95% success rate in gaze classification.
  • Demonstrated a global accuracy of approximately 2 degrees, comparable to existing remote gaze trackers.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed method offers a robust and accurate solution for view-based eye gaze tracking in low-cost HCI applications.
  • The system effectively mitigates issues related to head motion and illumination using standard hardware.
  • This approach enhances usability and accessibility for gaze-controlled interfaces.
