ABSTRACT
When wearing a head mounted display (HMD), the degree of concentration on the HMD varies depending on the surrounding environment. In this work, we developed an information presentation method considering cognitive cost and safety in wearable computing environments. The proposed method changes its information presentation method based on possible gazing time that varies in according with the surrounding environment and user context. We used an eye tracker to measure the relationship between eyestrain and watching an HMD and also clarified the relationship between gaze time and surrounding environment. We then used the results to develop an algorithm to change the information presentation method. Evaluation results revealed cases in which it was difficult and dangerous to gaze at an HMD and therefore necessary to change the information presentation.

Haptic feedback of gaze gestures with glasses: localization accuracy and effectiveness
UbiComp/ISWC'15 Adjunct: Adjunct Proceedings of the 2015 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing and Proceedings of the 2015 ACM International Symposium on Wearable ComputersWearable devices including smart eyewear require new interaction methods between the device and the user. In this paper, we describe our work on the combined use of eye tracking for input and haptic (touch) stimulation for output with eyewear. Input ...
Vibrotactile stimulation of the head enables faster gaze gestures
Gaze gestures are a promising input technology for wearable devices especially in the smart glasses form factor because gaze gesturing is unobtrusive and leaves the hands free for other tasks. We were interested in how gaze gestures can be enhanced with ...
