Abstract

A method of operating an eye tracking system to present a portion of displayable content to a user on a display screen. The displayable content covers a range of relative angles. The method comprises: receiving a head-pose-signal; receiving a gaze-signal; using the head-pose-signal to determine a sub-range of the relative angles of the displayable content; causing the display screen to present a portion of the displayable content to the user based on the determined sub-range of relative angles; and upon detecting that the gaze-signal represents a trigger location on the display screen: calculating a glance-induced offset based on the position of the trigger location; applying the glance-induced offset to the determined sub-range of relative angles to calculate an offsetted-sub-range of relative angles; and causing the display screen to present a portion of the displayable content to the user based on the calculated offsetted-sub-range of relative angles.
