Abstract

Knowing what the user is attending to and what they are looking at is essential for creating attentive user interfaces. Towards this end, we are building a reliable, real-time, non-invasive eye tracker using computer vision. Our system can robustly locate and track eyes without any calibration, and estimate the user's focus of attention. We have built several higher-level processes on top of this tracking system and have done some user studies to test the viability of our approach.
