Abstract

This chapter first discusses various areas of eye gaze research in order to show that gaze information plays an important role in various human cognitive activities. Based on the discussion, a three-step approach towards effective and natural gaze-aware human-computer interaction is proposed, which involves the analysis of human attentional behaviors, establishing computational models for interpreting eye gaze information, and building gaze-aware user interfaces. Finally, an overview of each chapter is provided to discuss how each of them contributes to one of these aspects.
