Abstract

This paper describes an eye gaze tracking methodology that utilizes a formation of points located within a GUI-component-based heads-up display to precisely track the eye gazing GUI component of interest. The eye gaze tracking methodology will utilize a GUI-component-based heads-up display, an eye tracking system, a computer system and a formation of imaginary points located collectively within the GUI components of the heads-up display. The GUI-component-based heads-up display will provide a virtual content viewing area that will partially occlude the central field of vision of the user of the eye gaze tracking methodology. And a unique point location will be located within each GUI component located within the heads-up display. Initially, the entire collection of entities associated with the eye gaze tracking methodology, will track and record the user’s eye gazing features for the unique point location, which will be located within each GUI component located within the heads-up display. The eye gazing features for each unique point location will include visible features such as the position of the iris of the eye on the eye tracking imagery observing screen, the orientation of the eye lids, the orientation of the eye lashes and the orientation of any visible features around the area of the eye. During the eye tracking procedures, if the user requires to observe a particular GUI component located within the heads-up display area, the user will be required to directly gaze at the corresponding unique point location that will be located within the GUI component of interest.
