A Scrolling Approach for Gaze-Based Interaction

Gaze-based interaction approaches like the Multi Modal Interaction Concept for Efficient Input (M²ice) minimize the need for using pointing devices like a computer mouse in human computer interaction. While most core functionalities of pointing devices can be addressed in a more or less straightfor-ward manner, secondary functions like scrolling remain to be a challenge. This demo paper presents a gaze-based extension for the M²ice interaction concept that is realized by dividing the screen into distinct areas and combining scrolling areas with a reading area in the middle. The approach is compared to other gaze-based solutions.
