Abstract:
Techniques for reducing a read out time and power consumption of an image sensor used for eye tracking are described. In an example, a position of an eye element in an active area of a sensor is determined. The eye element can be any of an eye, a pupil of the eye, an iris of the eye, or a glint at the eye. A region of interest (ROI) around the position of the eye is defined. The image sensor reads out pixels confined to the ROI, thereby generating an ROI image that shows the eye element.

Claim (Index 13):
The method of  claim 12 , wherein the ROI is positioned around the position corresponding to the eye, and further comprising:\n generating images in a second image burst based on the ROI being positioned around the position corresponding to the eye, the images comprising another BP ROI image and another DP ROI image; detecting a position corresponding to the pupil in the active area of the image sensor based on at least one of the other DP ROI image or the other DP ROI image; and repositioning the ROI to be centered around the position corresponding to the pupil for a third image burst.
