Abstract:
A method and system for assisting a user when interacting with a graphical user interface combines gaze based input with gesture based user commands. A user of a computer system without a traditional touch-screen can interact with graphical user interfaces in a touch-screen like manner using a combination of gaze based input and gesture based user commands. A solution for touch-screen like interaction uses gaze input and gesture based input as a complement or an alternative to touch-screen interactions with a computer device having a touch-screen. Combined gaze and gesture based interaction with graphical user interfaces can be used to achieve a touchscreen like environment in computer systems without a traditional touchscreen or in computer systems having a touchscreen arranged ergonomically unfavorable for the user or a touchscreen arranged such that it is more comfortable for the user to use gesture and gaze for the interaction than the touchscreen.

Claim (Index 1):
A control module for generating gesture based commands during user interaction with an information presentation area, wherein said control module is configured to:\n acquire user input from input means adapted to detect user generated gestures and gaze data signals from a gaze tracking module; and determine at least one user generated gesture based control command based on said user input; determine a gaze point area on said information presentation area including the user's gaze point based on at least the gaze data signals; and execute at least one user action manipulating a view presented on said graphical information presentation area based on said determined gaze point area and at least one user generated gesture based control command, wherein said user action is executed with said determined gaze point area as a starting point.
