Abstract
A 3D holographic virtual object display controlling method and apparatus based on human-eye tracking are provided. The display controlling method comprises the following steps of: activating tracking of human eyes of a user; tracking motions of eyeballs of the user; controlling a 3D holographic virtual object presented in a display interface to rotate in response to the motions of the eyeballs of the user; and ending up the tracking of the human eyes of the user. Thereby, the present disclosure can control rotation of a 3D holographic virtual object presented in a display interface by tracking eyeballs and in response to the motions of the eyeballs, which makes the operations convenient and easy.

A three-dimensional (3D) holographic virtual object display controlling method based on human-eye tracking, comprising the following steps of:
- activating tracking of human eyes of a user;
- tracking motions of eyeballs of the user;
- controlling a 3D holographic virtual object presented in a display interface to rotate in response to the motions of the eyeballs of the user;
- and
- ending up the tracking of the human eyes of the user;
- wherein the step of tracking motions of eyeballs of the user comprises:
- acquiring a human-face image of the user;
- identifying human-eye regions on the human-face image;
- identifying a sclerotic region and an iris region in each of the human-eye regions according to the color contrast;
- and
- tracking eyeball motions of the user according to changes in position of the iris region relative to the human-eye region;
- wherein the step of identifying a sclerotic region and an iris region in each of the human-eye regions according to the color contrast, further comprises:
- determining a center connection line of centers of the iris region of the left eye and the iris region of the right eye of the user;
- the step of controlling a 3D holographic virtual object presented in a display interface to rotate in response to the motions of the eyeballs of the user comprises:
- rotating the 3D holographic virtual object about a rotation axis that is located at a barycenter of the 3D holographic virtual object and perpendicular to the center connection line.
A display controlling apparatus based on human-eye tracking, wherein the display controlling apparatus comprises a non-transitory program storage medium and a processor, the non-transitory program storage medium stores a program executed by the processor to perform a method which comprises:
- activating tracking of human eyes of a user;
- tracking motions of eyeballs of the user;
- controlling a 3D holographic virtual object presented in a display interface to rotate in response to the motions of the eyeballs of the user;
- and
- ending up the tracking of the human eyes of the user;
- wherein the step of tracking motions of eyeballs of the user in the method performed by the processor, comprises:
- acquiring a human-face image of the user;
- identifying human-eye regions on the human-face image;
- identifying a sclerotic region and an iris region in each of the human-eye regions according to the color contrast;
- and
- tracking eyeball motions of the user according to changes in position of the iris region relative to the human-eye region;
- wherein the step of identifying a sclerotic region and an iris region in each of the human-eye regions according to the color contrast, further comprises:
- determining a center connection line of centers of the iris region of the left eye and the iris region of the right eye of the user;
- the step of controlling a 3D holographic virtual object presented in a display interface to rotate in response to the motions of the eyeballs of the user comprises:
- rotating the 3D holographic virtual object about a rotation axis that is located at a barycenter of the 3D holographic virtual object and perpendicular to the center connection line.
