Abstract

Eye-R is a system designed to detect and communicates the intentional information conveyed in eye movement. This glasses-mounted, wireless device stores and transfers information based on user eye motion and external IR devices thus promoting an enriched experience with their environment. This paper describes how the system measures eye motion and utilizes this as an implicit input channel to a sensor system and computer. In the primary scenario, eye motion detection is used to recognize a users gaze. When the person's eyes are fixated the system infers that they are paying attention to something in their environment and then tries to facilitate an exchange of information in either direction on the user's behalf.
