An eye-tracking method includes: acquiring an image of an eye of a user captured by an image-capturing module while the user is gazing at a gazing location on a screen module and a pair of light sources emit light toward the eye of the user; determining an angle and an area based on positions of a pupil and two reflected light spots on the eye of the user, wherein the angle and the area correspond to the gazing location; determining coordinates on the screen module based on the angle and the area, wherein the coordinates correspond to the gazing location; and performing an operation associated with the coordinates. An eye-tracking system for implementing the eye-tracking method is also disclosed. A correcting method and a correcting module for the eye-tracking system are further disclosed.

Eye-tracking method and eye-tracking system for implementing the same

An eye-tracking method includes acquiring an image of an eye of a user, identifying a pupil of and a reflected light spot on the eye from the acquired image, determining a distance of the reflected light spot from a reference point on the pupil and an angle of the reflected light spot from an axis passing through the reference point on the pupil, determining a gazing point based on the distance and the angle and a pre-established set of data, and performing an operation associated with the gazing point. A system for implementing the eye-tracking method is also disclosed.
