Development of Training Game Application using Eye-gaze Control Technology to Support Employment of Physically challenged people

Assistive devices using eye-gaze control technology have been developed to control personal computers (PCs) so that they can be used by children and adults who have significant physical disabilities. In this time, we focused on human eye movements, which can be very effective as final input controls because they can often provide a means of input for people suffering from extensive physical disabilities. We describe a game application developed to assist persons when they practice controlling their PCs using eye-gaze control. Subjects were given a trial of an eye-controlled game in which they performed the task of counting vehicles. From the experimental results, we have confirmed the effectiveness of our proposed training application, although it needs to be reconsidered for extended use.
