Abstract

A system can include one or more processors that determine a first position of an object in view of a user of a head mounted display (HMD) and a first gaze direction towards the first position. The object can be detected by one or more sensors. The one or more processors detect that the user is gazing at the object. The one or more processors determine, responsive to detecting that the user is gazing at the object, a second gaze direction based on at least a second position of one or more eyes of the user of the HMD provided via an eye tracking operation of the HMD. The one or more processors calibrate, based at least on a difference between the first gaze direction and the second gaze direction, the eye tracking operation of the HMD.
