Abstract
The invention relates to a control method based on a controlling eye signal, the method being characterized in that it comprises the following steps: detecting at least one slow movement corresponding to an eye movement of at least one eye of an operator; generating a said eye control signal from at least one detected slow movement; and producing a command from the eye control signal. The invention applies in particular to controlling cameras by eye.
Claims24
A control method based on an eye control signal comprising,
- (a) detecting at least one slow movement corresponding to an eye movement of at least one eye of an operator using an eye tracker;
- (b) generating said eye control signal using computer means from at least one detected slow movement;
- and
- (c) producing a command from the eye control signal, wherein the control method further comprises a training procedure performed with an operator by analyzing eye position data in successive same-duration time windows and by classifying data sets in each window in at least two classes comprising a first class of slow movements, for which a data set comprises sequential data points of values that are close to one another and organized in geometrical shape that is continuous, and a second class of non-slow movements.
