Abstract

Technologies for detecting user input based upon computed gaze of a user are described herein. With more specificity, a computing system receives an initiation command, where the initiation command indicates that the user desires to set forth input by way of gaze. Gaze points are then computed based upon images generated by a camera of the computing system; based upon such gaze points, a portion of the content is progressively enlarged. When the gaze point corresponds to a position in the content desirably selected by the user (when the portion of the content is enlarged), a selection command from the user is received. Upon receipt of the selection command, the computing system performs a computing operation with respect to the position of the content.
