Method and Device for Carrying Out Eye Tracking

Abstract

A method is disclosed for determining an eye position and/or eye gesture, in particular for use in controlling a function of an application system, in particular a wearable. The method includes (i) recording a profile of at least one EEG signal over time by way of a contact electrode in order to obtain a signal time series of the at least one EEG signal, (ii) providing input data sets from a signal block which arises from the signal time series, for successive time windows, and (iii) evaluating the input data sets in a data-based eye movement model in order to obtain the eye position or eye gesture, the eye movement model being formed using a neural network with one or more recurrent layers, in particular a respective LSTM layer or GRU layer or a transformer layer, and one or more neuron layers.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
