Why is eye tracking a good solution for interactions for the new Orion AR glasses just announced at Meta Connect? We have a new paper in press that explored how targeting objects at different depths impact performance in XR! tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

Some super cool work from @Coutinho_JD , @GunnarBlohm @doug_munoz, Philippe Lefèvre and Jeff Huang! Never considered a potential main-sequence-like dynamic relationship for pupil responses before. Neat model.

New paper! See Charlie's great thread below, plus here are my thoughts on our latest contribution dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/36499… 1/

New paper alert! @RealityLabs
Eye gaze in everyday life contains multi-scale temporal dependencies across objects (1-7 fixations into past, depending on task). Akin to natural language.
Key to foundation models for visual understanding in mixed reality

Foveated rendering is a key enabler for spatially realistic real-time VR, but nature hints that a key purpose of peripheral vision is motion perception. Our work on preserving motion perception in AR/VR, to appear in the ACM Transactions on Graphics (SIGGRAPH ‘24) (1/10)

Some highlights:
🔄 Like other movements, eye movements obey conservation of effort / energy optimality 🔄
From phone scrolling to wandering in the woods, people instinctively conserve effort by minimizing ocular range of motion and opting for shorter fixations.📱🌳

👀Just released in PNAS with Meta @RealityLabs. Laziness is unexpectedly central to gaze in everyday life. Mobile eye tracking dataset covers Pokémon GO, LEGO, driving, shopping, and more.💃Game changer for AR & AI research! w/ @MichaelProulx @tsmurdison

Very proud to finally share this data with the community! Many congrats to former RL intern @csburlingham, who did the work to compellingly describe natural oculomotor orienting behaviors across everyday tasks.

New article in the Extended Reality issue bit.ly/3PdJOLH by Iona R. McLean et al. @UCBerkeley considers the contribution of image minification to discomfort experienced in wearable optics.

My research program has a large focus on perceptual and oculomotor effects related to low persistence :) thank you @ID_AA_Carmack for speaking to this!
19 Jul 2023
No, all modern headsets are “low persistence”, where the image is only displayed for 1-2 milliseconds, and the remainder of the frame time the display is black. Without this, you get a huge amount of motion blur when you turn your head, as in the original DK1.

What’s really cool about this one is you can see the role that retinal slip plays in making this effect more and less obvious when scrolling through 😄

On Tuesday morning, @csburlingham will be presenting his project with @MichaelProulx , @olegkomo, Naveen Sendhilnathan and I on the sequential nature of real-world eye movements: “Oculomotor “laziness” constrains fixation selection in real-world tasks” 5/
