  • Abstract
    A drift calibration technique for DC-coupled EOG (electrooculogram) systems is proposed. It assumes a non-linear relationship between EOG and eye angle and estimates the absolute eye angle by the EOG differences during saccade. Drift is calibrated every saccade without user´s explicit action, so it is especially suitable for long-term gaze input interfaces. An experiment confirms that it can estimate horizontal absolute eye angle with an error of about 5° in addition to accurate eye movement.
