This study presents a wireless gaze tracker for hands-free computer control, enabling disabled users to interact via eye movements and facial gestures. The system demonstrates comparable accuracy to existing methods, enhancing accessibility.

Area of Science:

  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Assistive Technology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Traditional human-computer interaction methods often require manual dexterity.
  • Existing gaze tracking systems can be limited by tethered hardware and lack integrated selection mechanisms.
  • There is a need for accessible and mobile interaction solutions for individuals with limited hand mobility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel, lightweight, wearable, and wireless gaze tracker with an integrated selection command source.
  • To enable multimodal human-computer interaction using gaze pointing and facial gestures.
  • To improve accessibility for disabled individuals with limited hand mobility.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a prototype system combining head-mounted, video-based gaze tracking with capacitive facial movement detection.
