SUMMARY:Improving eye gaze controlled car dashboard using simulated anneal

DESCRIPTION:This talk presents a new algorithm to improve performance of p
 ointing and selection tasks in an eye gaze controlled graphical user inter
 face in automotive environment. The algorithm aims to reduce number of wro
 ng selection of targets due to inaccuracy of either the eye gaze tracker o
 r the calibration routine. The proposed method does not require changing l
 ayout of the interface rather puts a set of hotspots on clickable targets 
 using Simulated Annealing algorithm. A couple of user studies involving a 
 driving simulator and ISO 26022 lane changing task found that the proposed
  method can reduce number of wrong selection and can also improve driving 
 performance compared to an existing touchscreen system. The talk will also
  briefly present exploitation of the technology in military aviation and s
 mart manufacturing environments.
