  • Abstract
    Purpose of our works is development of an interface by eye movement for physically impaired people due to spinal cord injury and neurological disease. Eye appearance is changed by eye blinking, head motion, eye movement, and individual difference. Moreover, the system must track the eye and acquire its information simultaneously. For these problems, we use genetic eye tracking method with an artificial iris template. In this paper, we propose an application of the genetic eye tracking, and the effectiveness is evaluated by simulations. As the result, this proposed system achieves high accuracy.
