Calculation method of line-of-sight direction based on analysis and match of iris contour in human eye image

摘要

The invention provides a calculation method of line-of-sight direction based on analysis and match of iris contour in human eye image, including: a data driven method, for stable calculation of 3D line-of-sight direction via inputting human eye image to be matched with synthetic data of virtual eyeball appearance; two novel optimization matching criterions of eyeball appearance, which effectively reduce effects of uncontrollable factors, such as image scaling and noise on results; a joint optimization method, for the case of continuously shooting multiple human eye images, to further improve calculation accuracy. One application of the invention is virtual reality and human computer interaction which is under the principle that shooting eye images of a user and calculating line-of-sight direction of user to enable interaction with intelligent system interface or virtual realistic object. The invention can be widely used in training, games and entertainment, video surveillance, medical care and other fields.
