Development of a Fast and Robust Gaze Tracking System for Game Applications
This enables new interactive experiences for game players, but it is incremental as it builds on existing eye tracking methods.
The study developed a gaze tracking system for game applications, achieving an accuracy of 2.50 degrees horizontally and 3.07 degrees vertically in tests with nine people.
In this study, a novel eye tracking system using a visual camera is developed to extract human's gaze, and it can be used in modern game machines to bring new and innovative interactive experience to players. Central to the components of the system, is a robust iris-center and eye-corner detection algorithm basing on it the gaze is continuously and adaptively extracted. Evaluation tests were applied to nine people to evaluate the accuracy of the system and the results were 2.50 degrees (view angle) in horizontal direction and 3.07 degrees in vertical direction.
