Workshop on Eye-Gaze for Security Applications

Eye tracking has developed in the past years from being a technology that can be used only in labs and controlled settings, to a pervasive technology that is gradually weaving into our everyday lives. Advances in visual computing as well as in sensors and processing power of ubiquitous devices allow accurate gaze estimation and a myriad of applications for desktop settings, mobile devices, public displays, head-mounted displays, wearables and other ubicomp technologies. These advancements pave the way for eye tracking to deliver its promises on off-the-shelf devices. At the same time, eye movements are subtle and have been deemed attractive for security and privacy protection applications.
