Claim:
1. A method comprising: receiving, from a device coupled to a head mountable device (HMD), a signal indicative of a detected eye gesture; making a comparison of the signal to a reference signal; based on the comparison, making a determination that the signal is indicative of a particular eye gesture command; initiating a predefined task in response to the particular eye gesture command; subsequent to initiating the predefined task, receiving a second command requesting to perform a subsequent task, wherein the second command corresponds to a physical input and differs from the signal indicative of the particular eye gesture command; determining whether the subsequent task includes one or more functions dependent upon the initiation of the predefined task; responsive to determining that the subsequent task includes one or more functions dependent on the initiation of the predefined task, determining that the second command confirms the determination that the signal is indicative of the particular eye gesture command; and based on determining that the second command confirms the determination that the signal is indicative of the particular eye gesture command, adjusting one or more parameters of the reference signal based on one or more parameters of the signal indicative of the particular eye gesture command.
