Abstract:
Methods and corresponding systems of controlling illuminators in an eye tracking system are disclosed. The system includes a first image sensor, a second image sensor, a first close illuminator arranged to capture bright pupil images by the first image sensor, a second close illuminator arranged to capture bright pupil images by the second image sensor and one or more far illuminators arranged to capture dark pupil images by the first image sensor and the second image sensor. In the methods main and support illuminators are controlled during exposure of a first and a second image sensor to produce enhanced contrast and glint position for eye/gaze tracking.
