Abstract

A line-of-sight measurement device includes: an imaging unit that images a face of a subject; a light illumination unit that illuminates light to an eye of the subject; a camera coordinate system eyeball center coordinate calculation unit that estimates coordinates of an eyeball center, from a face image imaged by the imaging unit; a pupil center calculation unit that estimates coordinates of an apparent pupil center, from a pupil center position on the face image; an eyeball position orientation estimation unit that calculates an optical axis vector toward the pupil center from the eyeball center on the basis of the coordinates of the eyeball center and the apparent pupil center; a corneal reflection image calculation unit that obtains coordinates of a corneal reflection image on the basis of the coordinates of the eyeball center, the optical axis vector, and a predetermined eyeball model; and an image coordinate calculation unit that estimates image coordinates of a corneal reflection image on the face image, from the coordinates of the corneal reflection image.
