Embodiment Construction

[0010]The assignee of the present patent application has developed eye tracking devices, systems and methods that may be used to track the movement of a patient's pupils over time as they follow a video moving across a screen and measure metrics such as distance traveled over time and the ability to coordinate eye movements. Cranial Nerve III and VI palsies, for example, may be identified using this system and method, which includes at least one computer processor that employs an algorithm to perform diagnostic calculations. These devices, systems and methods are described more fully in the Incorporated References. The present application uses the same technology, method and algorithm to provide a non-invasive eye tracking methodology to measure ICP, and combines that technology and methodology with a device and method for biometric identification of the patient.

[0011]Referring to FIGS. 1A-1C, an eye tracking, biometric identification and diagnostic system 10 is illustrated, accordi...

Abstract

A method for measuring eye tracking in a patient and capturing ocular biometric identifying information from the patient may involve: displaying a video to the patient on a stimulus screen of an eye tracking and biometric identification system; tracking movement of the patient's eyes during display of the video via an eye tracking camera of the eye tracking and biometric identification system; capturing ocular biometric identifying information from the patient with an ocular biometric capture device of the eye tracking and biometric identification system; generating, with a computer processor of the eye tracking and biometric identification system, a score representing an ability of the patient's eyes to track the video; and confirming, with the computer processor, an identity of the patient, based on the captured ocular biometric identifying information.
