Abstract:
A visual line measuring device of the present disclosure includes a light source that emits light for forming a corneal reflection point on an eyeball of an object person who gazes at a predetermined gaze point, an image-capturing part that captures a plurality of facial images each of which includes the eyeball of the object person by which the light from the light source is reflected, a detector that calculates visual line information for each of the facial images captured by the image-capturing part, a calculation part that calculates correction information by using at least two sets of the visual line information being in a predetermined positional relation among a plurality of sets of the visual line information calculated by the detector, and a correction part that corrects the visual line information calculated by the detector, by using the correction information.
Abstract:
An eye tracking method in the disclosure comprises an image-capturing step of capturing a facial image including an eyeball of an object person, light from a light source that emits the light to form a corneal reflex point on the eyeball of the object person who gazes at a predetermined gaze point being reflected from the eyeball, a detecting step of calculating visual line information in a world coordinate system using the facial image captured in the image-capturing step and a correcting step of transforming the visual line information in the world coordinate system calculated in the detecting step into visual line information in a correction coordinate system that is a coordinate system different from the world coordinate system, and correcting the visual line information in the correction coordinate system using correction information for correcting a detection error caused by an individual difference of the eyeball.
Abstract:
A gaze direction detection device according to the present technology includes a detector for detecting a gaze of a driver over a predetermined period of time, a determiner for outputting second gaze information indicating that the driver is gazing, from first gaze information detected by the detector, a generator for generating a gaze distribution from the second gaze information output by the determiner, and a corrector for correcting the first gaze information detected by the detector, where the corrector calculates a center of a reference distribution that is set in advance and a center of the gaze distribution generated by the generator, and causes the center of the reference distribution and the center of the gaze distribution to overlap each other, and then calculates a correction parameter based on a difference between the reference distribution and the gaze distribution, and corrects the first gaze information with the correction parameter.
