| Abstract(in English) | Recording eye-gaze data from many people in natural situations are valuable in Human Factors, Market Strategy and any other studies. The gaze tracking system equipped with webcams is suitable to record eye-gaze data. The resolutions of eye-images captured by webcams are low. Low-resolution eye-images tend to be distorted and cause errors in gaze estimations. We have developed the gaze tracking system with low-resoltion eye-images. In our past study, we extract contours of pupils, remove distorted areas in these contours, approximate pupil contours into an ellipse, and calculate gaze direction from the ellipse. However, there was a problem that the threshold to binalize eye-images in our past system is hand-operated. In this paper, we propose the gaze tracking method using low-resolution eye-images with automatic-operated threshold. In our experiment, we have attained the accuracy that the horizontal error is 7.0[deg] and the vertical error is 4.3[deg]. |
