Eye tracking based selection of a user interface (UI) element based on targeting criteria

Abstract

A method is performed at an electronic device with one or more processors, a non-transitory memory, an eye tracker, and a display. The eye tracker receives eye tracking data associated with one or more eyes of a user of the electronic device. The method includes displaying, on the display, a first user interface (UI) element that is associated with a first selection region and a second selection region. While displaying the first UI element, the method includes determining, based on the eye tracking data, that a first targeting criterion is satisfied with respect to the first selection region, and determining, based on the eye tracking data, that a second targeting criterion is satisfied with respect to the second selection region. The method includes selecting the first UI element based at least in part on determining that the first targeting criterion is satisfied and the second targeting criterion is satisfied.
