Detecting the point-of-gaze in the real world is a challenging problem in eye-tracking applications. The point-of-gaze is estimated using geometry constraints, and user-calibration is required. In addition, the distances of the focused targets are variable and large in the real world. Therefore, a calibration-free approach without geometry constraints is needed to estimate the point-of-gaze. Recent studies have investigated smooth pursuit eye movements (smooth pursuits) for human-computer interaction applications, and we consider that these smooth pursuits can also be employed in eye tracking. Therefore, we developed a method for estimating the point-of-gaze using smooth pursuits without any requirement for implicit and explicit user-calibration. In this method, interest points are extracted from the scene image, and the point-of-gaze is detected using these points, which are strongly correlated with eye movements. We performed a comparative experiment in a real environment and demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed method.
