Abstract

With the advancement of smartphone technology, it is now possible for smartphones to run eye-tracking using the front-facing camera, enabling hands-free interaction by empowering mobile users with novel gaze-based input techniques. While several gaze-based interaction techniques have been proposed in the literature, these techniques were deployed in settings different from daily gaze interaction with mobile devices, posing several unique challenges. The user’s holding posture may hinder the camera’s view of their face during the interaction, the front-facing camera may be obstructed by the user’s clothing or hands, or the environment is shaky due to the user’s movements and the dynamic environment. This PhD research investigates the usability of state-of-the-art gaze-based input techniques in mobile settings, develops a novel concept of combining multiple gaze-based techniques, and addresses the challenges imposed by the unique aspects of these devices.
