Abstract :
This paper presents a framework for determining the direction of human gaze with an active multi-camera system. A fixed 3D depth sensor is employed in order to determine the position of the human face in 3D space and its features, like the eyes. Then an active pan-tilt camera is oriented to one of the user´s eyes and this way a high precision gaze direction determination is accomplished.
