Abstract:
An eye-tracking method includes: acquiring an image of an eye of a user captured by an image-capturing module while the user is gazing at a gazing location on a screen module and a pair of light sources emit light toward the eye of the user; determining an angle and an area based on positions of a pupil and two reflected light spots on the eye of the user, wherein the angle and the area correspond to the gazing location; determining coordinates on the screen module based on the angle and the area, wherein the coordinates correspond to the gazing location; and performing an operation associated with the coordinates. An eye-tracking system for implementing the eye-tracking method is also disclosed. A correcting method and a correcting module for the eye-tracking system are further disclosed.
