  • Patent number: 11449138
    Abstract: A method of saccade-based positioning of a radial user interface includes performing operations while a first radial user interface is displayed on a display. The operations include (a) detecting a saccade movement based on eye-tracking data received from an eye-tracking system; (b) determining whether the saccade movement crosses a first region border corresponding to a first region of the first radial user interface; (c) determining a velocity of the saccade movement based on the eye-tracking data; and (d) dynamically determining a location for a subsequent radial user interface in response to the velocity and in response to determining that the saccade movement crosses the first region border. The method also includes displaying, on the display, the subsequent radial user interface at the location.
