Abstract
The present disclosure provides embodiments of systems and methods that may be used by an information handling system (IHS) to improve the accuracy of eye tracking data generated by an eye tracking system of the IHS when a user's gaze is not directed to a gaze interaction plane of the eye tracking system. In one embodiment, the method may include receiving first data corresponding to a hinge angle (θ) measured between a first surface and a second surface of the IHS, receiving second data corresponding to a user's gaze on the first surface or the second surface, and using the first data and the second data to provide accurate eye tracking data when the user's gaze is directed to the second surface. When the user's gaze is directed to the first surface, the method may use the second data, but not the first data, to provide accurate eye tracking data.
