  • Publication number: 20140184550
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for enhancing inputs or interactions. The method comprises correlating gaze information for a subject to information corresponding to an environment; and providing an enhancement to an input or interaction between the subject and the environment. A system and method are also provided for enabling enhanced inputs or interactions with objects in an environment. The method comprises correlating gaze information for a subject to a registration input corresponding to an object in the environment; and registering a position of the object in the environment using the gaze information.

  • Publication number: 20130235347
    Abstract: A system and method are provided that use eye gaze as a pointing or selection tool, which enables hands-free operation of a display such as a television. wherein the use of eye gaze as an input can also lead to easier and faster interactions when compared to traditional remote controls. A system and method are also provided that use eye tracking on displays such as televisions to determine what content was viewed and, by association, what content was of most interest to the user. Systems and methods are also described that enable interaction with elements displayed in an augmented reality environment using gaze tracking and for controlling gaze tracking on a portable electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20130156265
    Abstract: A system and method are provided that use point of gaze information to determine what portions of 3D media content are actually being viewed to enable a 3D media content viewing experience to be improved. Tracking eye movements of viewers to obtain such point of gaze information are used to control characteristics of the 3D media content during consumption of that media, and/or to improve or otherwise adjust or refine the 3D media content during creation thereof by a media content provider. Outputs may be generated to illustrate what in the 3D media content was viewed at incorrect depths. Such outputs may then be used in subsequent or offline analyses, e.g., by editors for media content providers when generating the 3D media itself, in order to gauge the 3D effects. A quality metric can be computed based on the point of gaze information, which can be used to analyze the interactions between viewers and the 3D media content being displayed.
