Abstract

Method for controlling a combined eye and gesture tracking system (100), wherein the method comprises providing a graphical user interface (102) to a user including a plurality of graphical items (110) displayed on the graphical user interface (102, 300), displaying a graphical pointer (120) on the graphical user interface (102, 310), detecting a user eye gaze (210) associated with the eyes of theuser (320), detecting a displacement user gesture (230) associated with a body part of the user (330), and controlling a rate of movement of the graphical pointer (120) on the graphical user interface based on the displacement user gesture (230) and the user eye gaze (210, 340).

Description

technical field [0001] Various embodiments relate to a method for controlling a combined eye and gesture tracking system, and in particular to a method for controlling a combined eye and gesture tracking system for a graphical user interface in an automotive environment. Background technique [0002] The use of electronic devices such as navigation systems, communication devices and media players is becoming more and more popular in the automotive environment. Such devices provide users with convenient access to informational content (such as navigation instructions), media content (such as music, news, communication services), and means for controlling vehicle operation. [0003] Human machine interfaces (HMIs) are known to include graphical user interfaces displaying a plurality of menu items. The menu items may relate to items of a graphical menu of the graphical user interface, which items can be selected or activated by the user by using eg a graphical pointer. Upon m...
