What type of user input is usually used
to unlock our cellular device?

Is it observable and can be easily

memorized by the person seated
next to you?

Given that our cellular devices

have many built sensors, what
other ways can you think of to
unlock our cellular device? (to
name a few: accelerometer,
proximity sensor, light sensors etc. .
.) Hand Movement maybe?
How about eye movement patterns
(detected and recorded by the front
camera of our cellular device?)
Wouldn’t it be much more secure?
 Eye Tracking Technology:
Interactive Applications

• Interactive applications beneficial to

users that are paralyzed or are suffering
from motor neuron degenerative
diseases.
• Serves as an assistive technology from “Eyes can talk”
remotely operating appliances, use text
to speech applications, draw, play
music, etc.

Intelligent Tutoring Systems

Expert Versus Novice Scan Paths

• Auto detect reading difficulties through gaze patterns and introduce scaffoldings
• Gaze contingent displays (zooms in important portions of material)
• Extract expert eye movements and train others to do the same

Things you can do

 Interactive Application Development

- Examples: Gaze Contingent displays, Intelligent Tutoring Systems
 Base line studies by using Data Analysis
Class Participation

 With the two technologies presented, discuss with your

seatmate/group mate some ideas on what applications you can
develop or studies you can do?
 Report in the class the following:
1. System Features / Study Objectives
2. Target Participants
3. Advantages
4. Possible difficulties in development/ doing the study
Thank you for Listening 
