Disclosed is a head mounted electronic device including a body, a lens clip having at least one opening defined therein, wherein the lens clip is disposed on the body so as to face toward a face of a user, an infrared-ray emissive device disposed on one portion of the body, an infrared-ray imaging device disposed on an opposite portion of the body to one portion thereof, wherein the infrared-ray imaging device acquires a first eyeball image obtained when infrared-ray emitting from the infrared-ray emissive device is reflected from an eyeball of the user, and a processor operatively connected to the infrared-ray emissive device and the infrared-ray imaging device.
EYE GAZE CLASSIFICATION
Techniques of tracking a user's gaze includes identifying a region of a display at which a gaze of a user is directed, the region including a plurality of pixels. By determining a region rather than a point, when the regions correspond to elements of a user interface, the improved technique enables a system to activate the element to which a determined region is selected. In some implementations, the system makes the determination using a classification engine including a convolutional neural network; such an engine takes as input images of the user's eye and outputs a list of probabilities that the gaze is directed to each of the regions.
METHOD, COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT, CONTROL UNIT AND HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY FOR CONSERVING ENERGY IN AN EYE TRACKING SYSTEM
An eye tracking system includes at least two cameras configured to register eye images of at least one eye. The system obtains eye images from at least one camera in a subset of the at least two cameras, determines a first pupil parameter based on a first eye image, and determines a second pupil parameter based on a second eye image. The system compares the first and second pupil parameters to obtain a test parameter and checks the test parameter against at least one operation criterion. Responsive to the checking, the system assigns a respective operation state to at least one camera in the subset. The operation state involves one of (A) operating the camera at a high frame rate, (B) operating the camera at a reduced frame rate being lower than high frame rate, (C) the camera being in a standby mode or (D) the camera being powered off.
EYE TRACKING SYSTEM
An eye tracking system provides a quality measure of a calculated gaze of a user. The eye tracking system receives gaze data including left eye gaze data associated with a left eye of the user and right eye gaze data associated with a right eye of the user. The eye tracking system compares the left eye gaze data and the right eye gaze data to determine a gaze difference value. The eye tracking system provides a gaze quality value of the gaze data based on the gaze difference value.
Shear wave based elasticity imaging using three-dimensional segmentation for ocular disease diagnosis
Retinal diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), are the leading cause of blindness in the elderly population. Since no known cures are currently present, it is crucial to diagnose the condition in its early stages so that disease progression is monitored. Systems and methods for detecting and mapping the mechanical elasticity of retinal layers in the posterior eye are disclosed herein. A system including confocal shear wave acoustic radiation force optical coherence elastography (SW-ARF-OCE) is provided, wherein an ultrasound transducer and an optical scan head are co-aligned to facilitate in-vivo study of the retina. In addition, an automatic segmentation algorithm is used to isolate tissue layers and analyze the shear wave propagation within the retinal tissue to estimate mechanical stress on the retina and detect early stages of retinal diseases based on the estimated mechanical stress.
