چکیده

This paper introduces a work in progress method for automating camera control in games using gaze tracking. Building on prior work by Burelli et al, we provide characterization of features for the gaze tracker and test a gaze-assisted camera control module in a first-person shooter game. We report results from a pilot study on the viability of gaze-assisted camera control. We also discuss challenges and viability of gaze-assisted camera controller for games and interactive applications. Finally, we present ongoing and future work in this area.

Towards Adaptive Virtual Camera Control in Computer Games

Automatic camera control aims to define a framework to control virtual camera movements in dynamic and unpredictable virtual environments while ensuring a set of desired visual properties. We investigate the relationship between camera placement and playing behaviour in games and build a user model of the camera behaviour that can be used to control camera movements based on player preferences....

Gameplay experience in a gaze interaction game

Jönsson (2005) compared eye and mouse control as input for two three-dimensional (3D) computer games and found that gaze control was more accurate, game experience was perceived as subjectively more enjoyable and committing. Smith and Graham (2006) studied eye-based input for several game types, with principally 3D navigation. Their results show that participants felt more immersed when using t...

Applying Constraint Weighting to Autonomous Camera Control

Automating camera control for third-person perspective computer games is a difficult and time-consuming task. One of the challenges games developers confront is how to manage the trade-off between implementation complexity and system usability. In this study, we investigate the application of constraint weighting techniques to the autonomous camera control problem. We demonstrate that this tech...

Camera Mouse Including “Ctrl-Alt-Del” Key Operation Using Gaze, Blink, and Mouth Shape

This paper presents camera mouse system with additional feature: "CTRL ALT DEL" key. The previous gaze-based camera mouse systems are only considering how to obtain gaze and making selection. We proposed gaze-based camera mouse with "CTRL ALT DEL" key. Infrared camera is put on top of display while user looking ahead. User gaze is estimated based on eye gaze and head pose. Blinking and mouth de...

Camera-based Gaze Control for Virtual Characters

Virtual characters have become crucial to many interactive 3D graphical virtual environment simulations in the context of virtual reality and computer games. One of the primary concerns of the designers of such environments is to model the interaction of the virtual characters with the users. The gaze of the virtual character forms a chief component of this interaction. When the gaze of the vir...
