I am interested in doing the following: a) detecting eye movements (cheaply) b) interpreting them (up,down,left,right,ect..) c) driving a user interface with this information (for example: X) The applications to a VR system should be obvious, because it would be just wonderful for the computer to know where the user's eyes are pointed at any given moment. My plan was to use Electro-Oculographic (EOG) methods to measure eye displacement. The hardware for this should be simple enough: pick up skin voltages around the eyes pass this through an amplifier and then an A-D converter. I was wondering if this method (EOG) is done elsewhere, and if so what algorithms are used to interpret these signals? I know that there have been people using more complicated hardware, which was at one time cost prohibitive. Is this still true? -- David Ruderman ruderman@sbcs.sunysb.edu Department of Computer Science (516) 632-7675 SUNY at Stony Brook "The price of freedom is Stony Brook, NY 11794-4400 eternal vigilance."
