SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR BIOMECHANICALLY-BASED EYE SIGNALS FOR INTERACTING WITH REAL AND VIRTUAL OBJECTS

Systems and methods are provided for discerning the intent of a device wearer primarily based on movements of the eyes. The system may be included within unobtrusive headwear that performs eye tracking and controls screen display. The system may also utilize remote eye tracking camera(s), remote displays and/or other ancillary inputs. Screen layout is optimized to facilitate the formation and reliable detection of rapid eye signals. The detection of eye signals is based on tracking physiological movements of the eye that are under voluntary control by the device wearer. The detection of eye signals results in actions that are compatible with wearable computing and a wide range of display devices.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VERIFYING USER USING MULTIPLE BIOMETRIC VERIFIERS

A user verification apparatus may perform user verification using multiple biometric verifiers. The user verification apparatus may set a termination stage of one or more biometric verifiers. Multiple biometric verifiers may be used to generate outputs, for which separate termination stages are set to establish a particular combination of set termination stages associated with the multiple biometric verifiers, and the user verification apparatus may fuse outputs of the biometric verifiers based on the particular combination of set termination stages. The user verification apparatus may verify a user based on a result of the fusing, and an unlocking command signal may be generated based on the verifying. The unlocking command signal may be generated to selectively grant access, to the verified user, to one or more elements of a device. The device may be a vehicle.
