Slight change in scheduleWritten on 30.05.23 (last change on 30.05.23) by Anna Maria Feit Note that there was a slight change in schedule since one student dropped out of the seminar.

E 1.7 R001
Overview
Looking into someone's eyes can tell you a lot about their state of mind, their intentions or their next actions; whether they are daydreaming or concentrating, whether they understand the math teacher's explanations or whether they are going to eat that last cookie.
Using eye tracking, we try to bring that kind of understanding about a user's mind to a computing device, to enable a smoother, more efficient or more enjoyable interaction, be it on web pages, for gaming or with augmented reality interfaces.
This seminar will introduce students to the area of eye tracking research in particular with a focus on intelligent user interfaces. We will see how a person's gaze can be tracked, how we can infer a person's intentions, interests, cognitive load, etc., and how such information can be used to improve our interaction with computers.
Organization
Students can take this course as either a seminar or a proseminar. As such, it brings together Master and Bachelorstudents. It is highly interactive and builds on the active participation of all students throughout the semester. Every week students will read papers from eye tracking and human-computer interaction and prepare a set of discussion questions. In addition, participants take turn in assuming different roles, such as presenter, teacher, journalist, etc. looking at the material from different viewpoints.
