Gazing at games : an introduction to eye tracking control / Veronica Sundstedt.

Eye tracking is a process that identifies a specific point in both space and time that is being looked at by the observer. This information can also be used in real-time to control applications using the eyes. Recent innovations in the video game industry include alternative input modalities to prov...
