Title
Input Interface Using Eye-Gaze and Blink Information.
Abstract
We have developed an eye-gaze input system for people with severe physical disabilities. The system utilizes a personal computer and a home video camera to detect eye-gaze under natural light, and users can easily move the mouse cursor to any point on the screen to which they direct their gaze. We constructed this system by first confirming a large difference in the duration of voluntary (conscious) and involuntary (unconscious) blinks through a precursor experiment. Consequently, on the basis of the results obtained, we developed our eye-gaze input interface, which uses the information received from voluntary blinks. More specifically, users can decide on their input by performing voluntary blinks as substitutes for mouse clicks. In this paper, we discuss the eye-gaze and blink information input interface developed and the results of evaluations conducted.
