Verge-it: Gaze interaction for a binocular head-worn display using modulated disparity vergence eye movement

Abstract

The Midas touch problem is a well-known problem in eye gaze interaction techniques. We present Verge-it as a Midas touch free input technique using modulated disparity vergence eye movement for a binocular head-worn display. We conducted a feasibility study under two different visual background conditions, namely dynamic background (TV) and static background (Wall) conditions. This study revealed a low false positive rate (TV: 0%, Wall: 2.10%) for Verge-it and acceptable performance.
