Abstract
An eye gaze detecting device includes: a memory configured to store position information regarding a specific position where a specific object is located; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: identify an eye gaze position regarding the subject in an image for each of a plurality of images including the image, and calculate a correction value based on the position information and a plurality of eye gaze positions including the eye gaze position, the correction value causing the plurality of eye gaze positions to match the specific position.
Claims11
An eye gaze detecting device comprising:
- a memory configured to store position information regarding a specific position where a specific object is located;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
- identify an eye gaze position regarding the subject in an image for each of a plurality of images including the image, and
- calculate a correction value based on the position information and a plurality of eye gaze positions including the eye gaze position, the correction value causing the plurality of eye gaze positions to match the specific position.
An eye gaze detection method executed by a computer, the eye gaze detection method comprising:
- acquiring a plurality of eye gaze directions of a subject, the plurality of eye gaze directions being identified from a plurality of images respectively;
- identifying eye gaze positions for each of the plurality of eye gaze directions, the eye gaze positions corresponding to intersections of a virtual plane and the each of the plurality of eye gaze directions, and the virtual plane being set based on a three-dimensional position at which the subject is assumed to gaze;
- and
- calculating a correction value to be applied when a new eye gaze position is identified from a new image based on an offset between the plurality of eye gaze positions and the three-dimensional position.
