A visual line detecting device is arranged to detect the Purkinje image position of an illuminated eye of an observer through light reflected by the eye and to detect the direction of the visual line of the observer from the Purkinje image position and the position of the pupil center of the eye. The device estimates the pupil diameter of the eye from the luminance of external light and determines the position of the center of the pupil by determining the position of a boundary between the pupil and the iris of the eye on the basis of the pupil diameter estimated.

摘要:
An optical apparatus which detects a visual axis using plural reflected images of a light source includes an observation device with which an observer observes an object. An image sensor is provided for generating a signal and response to an image. Optical structure is provided for forming a plurality of reflected light source images on the image sensor by reflection of light from the eye of the observer. The optical structure includes (1) an illumination assembly for projecting a light beam from at least one light source to the eye of the observer, and (2) a convergence component having at least one convergent lens for converging the light beam reflected from the eye of the observer, to produce the plurality of reflected light source images. The optical structure includes at least two light sources and/or two convergent lenses. An electrical circuit is coupled to the image sensor for generating (1) information relating to a working distance between the plurality of reflected light source images reflected from the eye, and (2) information relating to the reflected image of a front eye part, to generate information relating to a direction of the visual axis of the eye.
摘要:
A visual axis detection apparatus in which an eye of an observer is illuminated by a light source, and the corneal reflection image of the eye and the reflected image of the iris are detected by a light sensor. By the utilization of the position information of each reflected image from the sensor, the visual axis of the eye is calculated by a calculator. The light sensor has a plurality of photoelectric elements, and the calculator utilizes the position information of one of a plurality of photoelectric elements which produces the smallest output signal to detect the reflected image of iris on the basis of the signal from the light sensor.
