297 results about "Eye tracking" patented technology

Eye tracking is the process of measuring either the point of gaze (where one is looking) or the motion of an eye relative to the head. An eye tracker is a device for measuring eye positions and eye movement. Eye trackers are used in research on the visual system, in psychology, in psycholinguistics, marketing, as an input device for human-computer interaction, and in product design. Eye trackers are also being increasingly used for rehabilitative and assistive applications (related for instance to control of wheel chairs, robotic arms and prostheses). There are a number of methods for measuring eye movement. The most popular variant uses video images from which the eye position is extracted. Other methods use search coils or are based on the electrooculogram.

Abnormality detection method and abnormality detection system

A machine learning model is constructed by machine learning based on image data that is obtained by imaging each portion provided in a substrate processing device and sound data of sounds emitted when the portions operate. As the sound data, both the data of a normal sound that is emitted when each portion operates normally and the data of an abnormal sound that is emitted when each portion is abnormally operated are collected. When abnormality detection is performed, an eye tracking function identifies a position that is being viewed by a worker wearing smart glasses in which a machine learning model is installed. An image of a region including the identified viewed position is captured, and a sound is collected in a state in which the worker is viewing the viewed position.
