Control apparatus based on eyes and method for controlling device thereof

摘要

The present invention relates to an eye-gaze based control device. The eye-gaze based control device of the present invention may control a control target device according to an eye-gaze point of a user. Here, the eye-gaze based control device controls the control target device by controlling a size of an image displayed to the user, thereby more precisely controlling the control target device.

主权项

1. An eye-gaze based control device comprising:
an image generation unit configured to create an image by applying a spatial coordinate system to image data and synchronizing a device coordinate system with the spatial coordinate system applied to the image data; an image output unit configured to output the image; an eye-gaze point detection unit configured to detect an eye-gaze point of the user on the outputted image and detect an eye-gaze point coordinate; a control command input unit configured to receive a user control command; a coordinate value calculation unit configured to generate a control signal for controlling a device by matching the eye-gaze point coordinate with the device coordinate system based on the user control command, wherein the control signal comprises a signal for controlling one of operations of moving, magnifying and reducing the image on the basis of the eye-gaze point coordinate, wherein the spatial coordinate system corresponds to a physical space, and wherein the device coordinate system corresponds to a frame of reference of the device.
