Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving eye tracking information associated with eye movement of a user of a computing system from an eye tracking system coupled to the computing system, wherein the computing system is in a first mode of operation; based on the eye tracking information, determining that a path associated with the eye movement substantially matches a path of a displayed moving object, wherein determining that the path associated with the eye movement substantially matches the path of the displayed moving object comprises adjusting the path associated with the eye movement based on a location of a gaze axis of an eye with respect to a reference axis associated with the eye tracking system; and in response to determining that the path associated with the eye movement substantially matches the path of the displayed moving object, causing the computing system to enter a second mode of operation, wherein the second mode of operation comprises a state of increased responsiveness to user-input as compared to the first mode of operation.
