Claim 9:
10. A method for communication between a first terminal of a first user and a second terminal of a second user each comprising a device for establishing a communication to at least one terminal by analyzing eye movements of a user, said terminals having at least, respectively, a first and a second camera and at least, respectively, a first and a second area of interest associated, respectively, with the second and with the first terminal, and wherein the method comprises:
said camera of said first terminal capturing the eye movements of said first user,
said camera of said second terminal capturing the eye movements of said second user,
said first terminal analyzing the eye movements captured by said first terminal,
said second terminal analyzing the eye movements captured by said second terminal,
said first terminal evaluating a first duration for which the analysis of the eye movements indicates that a gaze of the user of the first terminal remains directed toward said first area of interest, and in response to the evaluation indicating that this duration is greater than a first threshold, said first terminal transmitting at least one first message to said at least one second terminal,
said second terminal evaluating a second duration for which the analysis of the eye movements indicates that a gaze of the user of the second terminal remains directed toward said second area of interest, and in response to the evaluation indicating that this second duration is greater than a second threshold, said second terminal transmitting at least one second message to said at least one first terminal,
establishing a communication between said first terminal and said second terminal if said at least one second message is received, following the transmitting performed on said first terminal, by said at least one first terminal within a time interval.
