Towards efficient calibration for webcam eye-tracking in online experiments

Calibration is performed in eye-tracking studies to map raw model outputs to gaze-points on the screen and improve accuracy of gaze predictions. Calibration parameters, such as user-screen distance, camera intrinsic properties, and position of the screen with respect to the camera can be easily calculated in controlled offline setups, however, their estimation is non-trivial in unrestricted, online, experimental settings. Here, we propose the …
