Abstract

Motivation -- Natural gaze involves the coordinated movements of eye, head and torso. This allows access to a wide field of view, up to a range of 260° (Chen, Solinger, Poncet Lancet, 1999). The recent increase in large displays places a demand on being able to track a mobile user's gaze over this extensive range.
Research approach -- We developed an extensible system for measuring the gaze of users on wall-sized displays. Our solution combines the inputs of a conventional head-mounted eyetracker (Eyelink2©, SR Research) and motion-capture system (Vicon MX©, Vicon), to provide real-time measurements of a mobile user's gaze in 3D space.
Findings/Design -- The presented system serves as a single platform for studying user behavior across a wide range of tasks: single-step saccade shifts, free-viewing of natural scenes, visual search and gaze-assisted user interfaces. Importantly, it allows eye- and head-movements to be separately measured without compromising the accuracy of combined gaze measurements.
Take away message -- Unrestrained gaze movements on a large display can be accurately measured by suitably combining the inputs of conventional eye- and body-tracking hardware.
