Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a new non-intrusive approach to estimating the eye position during pursuit motion of the eye. We introduce a new characterization for the pursuit eye movement. Our characterization is based on the decomposition of the pursuit eye motion into a deterministic component and random component. We use a discrete Kalman filter to estimate the random component and calculate the deterministic component. We add the two components to obtain an estimate of the eye position. Simulation results are provided to illustrate the eye position estimation.
