Abstract:
A computing system and method to implement a three-dimensional virtual reality world with avatar eye movements without user eye tracking. A position and orientation of a respective avatar in the virtual reality world is tracked to generate a view of the virtual world for the avatar and to present the avatar to others. In response to detecting a predetermined event, the computing system predicts a point (e.g., the eye of another avatar) that is of interest to the respective avatar responsive to the event, and computes, according to an eye movement model, an animation of the eyes of the respective avatar where the gaze of the avatar moves from an initial point to the predicted point and/or its vicinity for a period of time and back to the initial point.

Claim (Index 16):
A non-transitory computer storage medium storing instructions configured to instruct a computer device to perform a method implemented in a three-dimensional virtual reality world, the method comprising:\n detecting an event related to an avatar having a position and orientation in the virtual reality world, the avatar having at least one eye; and in response to the event,\n predicting a point of interest to the avatar without tracking eyes of a user of the avatar; and \n computing an animation of the eye of the avatar, wherein the animation is configured to move a gaze of the avatar from an initial point at a time of the event to the point of interest.
