Abstract
A method for detecting content of interest to a user includes obtaining a first data stream indicative of eye movement and/or gaze direction of the user as the user is viewing a scene in a field of view of the user, obtaining a second data stream indicative of visual content in the field of view of the user, determining, based on the first data stream and the second data stream, that content of interest to the user is present in the scene in the field of view of the user, and, in response to determining that content of interest to the user is present in the scene in the field of view of the user, triggering, with the processor, an operation to be performed with respect to the scene in the field of view of the user.
