Abstract
Psychologists have revealed that the human gaze conveys a wealth of information about a person´s mental state and its personality. Gaze contributes to human-to-human communication. We propose using gaze as a nonverbal communication tool between humans and computers. The paper presents the concept of gaze communication between humans and an anthropomorphic agent and shows that the gaze of an agent can convey personality when the gaze is moved using our gaze model. Finally, it presents some examples of gaze communication
