389 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.

Night mode for XR systems

An XR system is disclosed having a night mode to optimize performance in low light conditions. The system estimates a user's dark adaptation level based on captured image data and selects a rendering configuration aligned with the user's vision. For example, spatial resolution, temporal resolution, color mode, and brightness are adjusted based on whether the adaptation level is scotopic, mesopic, or photopic. With eye tracking, foveated rendering is used for cones and periphery rendering for rods. Without eye tracking, modes with different wavelengths and colorization are employed. The night mode aims to maximize information visible on the display, conserve power by only showing what eyes can perceive, and preserve night vision by avoiding over-stimulating rods.
