Ubiquitous Gaze Sensing and Interaction (Dagstuhl Seminar 18252)

This report documents the program and outcomes of the "'. The miniaturization of optical devices and advances in computer vision, as well as a lower cost point, have led to an increased integration of gaze sensing capabilities in computing systems. Eye tracking is no longer restricted to a well controlled laboratory setting, but moving into everyday settings. Therefore, this Dagstuhl Seminar brought together experts in computer graphics, signal processing, visualization, human-computer interaction, data analytics, pattern analysis and classification along with researchers who employ eye tracking across a diverse set of disciplines: geo-information systems, medicine, aviation, psychology, and neuroscience, to explore future applications and to identify requirements for reliable gaze sensing technology. This fostered a dialog and allowed: (1) computing scientists to understand the problems that are faced in recording and interpreting gaze data; (2) gaze researchers to consider how modern computing techniques could potentially advance their research. Other issues concerning the ubiquitous deployment of gaze sensing and interaction were also discussed, such ethical and privacy concerns when deploying gaze monitoring devices in everyday settings.
