Abstract: Methods to trigger eye enrollment without requiring good gaze interaction are described that allow a guest user of a device to initiate partial or full eye enrollment even though their eye model is not known and thus conventional gaze-based interactions do not work well. A gaze tracking system collects gaze data in the background. At any time (or within an interval after a user puts on the device), an eye enrollment can be triggered by detecting some gaze gesture, for example rolling the eyes in a large circle, or moving the eyes randomly for a time that exceeds a threshold. Depending on the coverage of the gaze/cornea data collected in the background, a full eye enrollment or only a visual axis enrollment may be performed in response to the gesture.

The voice guidance in some embodiments distinguishes between music that can be ducked and spoken words, for example from an audiobook, that the user wants to pause instead of being skipped. The voice guidance ducks music but pauses spoken words of an audio book in order to provide voice guidance to the user.
