Abstract(in English) The gaze estimation without restraining users at home will be contributed to reformation of user interfaces. The commercial gaze estimation systems show high accuracy by using infrared, however, gaze estimation systems with web cameras are highly desired at homes because of their price. The problem using web cams is its low resolution for gaze estimation. Low resolution images are strongly influenced by noises. So the past studies do not estimate detailed direction of eyes. In this paper, we propose a new gaze estimation method which shows high accuracy using image processing and geometrical processing to low resolution images. In our experimentation, 5 participants' average horizontal error is 3.8[deg] and average vertical error is 1.9[deg] without calibration.
