Purpose: To test on humans an eye tracker based on the use of a contact lens with active infrared sources and to evaluate whether this system can track the eye behind the eyelid.
Methods: The system is made up of a scleral contact lens embedding two vertical cavity self-emitting lasers (VCSELs) remotely driven by eyewear comprised of electronics and cameras. Tests on humans were carried out on five subjects to assess performance and to determine whether the VCSEL spot could be detected behind the eyelid.
Article Synopsis
- - The study evaluates the effectiveness of a scleral contact lens with near-infrared lasers (CLP) in enhancing video-based eye tracking performance in various lighting conditions, especially outdoors.
- - CLP demonstrated tracking accuracy of better than 1° under challenging lighting, while a commercial eye tracker (Pupil Core) performed excellently indoors but substantially poorly outdoors.
- - The results suggest that CLP could significantly boost the reliability of eye tracking systems in outdoor environments by offering easily detectable features.
