Abstract :
This paper describes an eye-gaze interface using a biological signal, electro-oculorgram (EOG). This interface enables a user to move a computer cursor on a graphical user interface using eye gaze movement alone. It will be useful as a communication aid for individuals with mobility handicaps. Although EOG is easily recordable, drifting and blinking problems must be solved to produce a reliable eye-gaze interface. Here we introduced a calibration method and a feedback control to overcome these problems.
