ABSTRACT
This paper presents an experiment comparing performance and user experience of gaze and mouse interaction in a minimalistic 3D flying game that only required steering. Mouse interaction provided better performance and participants considered it less physical and mental demanding, less frustrating and less difficult to maneuver. Gaze interaction, however, yielded higher levels of entertainment and engagement. The paper suggests that gaze steering provides a high kinesthetic pleasure both because it is difficult to master and because it presents a unique mapping between fixation and locomotion.

Designing gaze gestures for gaming: an investigation of performance
ETRA '10: Proceedings of the 2010 Symposium on Eye-Tracking Research & ApplicationsTo enable people with motor impairments to use gaze control to play online games and take part in virtual communities, new interaction techniques are needed that overcome the limitations of dwell clicking on icons in the games interface. We have ...
Simple gaze gestures and the closure of the eyes as an interaction technique
ETRA '12: Proceedings of the Symposium on Eye Tracking Research and ApplicationsWe created a set of gaze gestures that utilize the following three elements: simple one-segment gestures, off-screen space, and the closure of the eyes. These gestures are to be used as the moving tool in a gaze-only controlled drawing application. We ...
Eyemic: an eye tracker for surgical microscope
ETRA '18: Proceedings of the 2018 ACM Symposium on Eye Tracking Research & ApplicationsThe concept of hands free surgical microscope has become increasingly popular in the domain of microsurgery. The higher magnification, the smaller field of view, necessitates frequent interaction with the microscope during an operation. Researchers ...
