IMAGE MANIPULATION BASED ON TRACKED EYE MOVEMENT
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- causing a display device to display a first image of an object in a predefined viewing area;
obtaining data representative of a location of a tracked eye gaze with respect to the viewing area;
processing the obtained data to determine a modification of the first image with respect to at least one of;
a viewing direction of the object, an angle of view of the object, and a spatial position of the object with respect to the viewing area; and
causing the display device to display a second image of the object including the modification.

Abstract
The disclosure relates to controlling and manipulating an image of an object on a display device based on tracked eye movements of an observer. When the object is displayed according to an initial view, the observer'"'"'s eye movement is tracked and processed in order to determine the focus of the observer'"'"'s attention or gaze on the image. Thereafter, the displayed image is modified to provide a better view of the part of the object in which the observer is most interested. This is accomplished by modifying at least one of the spatial positioning of the object within the viewing area, the angle of view of the object, and the viewing direction of the object.
