Abstract

Method for determining calibration information in relation to a digital camera used to depict a user in a system for determining a user gaze point in relation to an entity, the method comprising: receiving from the camera at least one image of a user; performing digital image processing on the image to determine an in-image feature size dimension of a feature of the entity as reflected in an eye of the user; and to determine an in-image limbus size dimension of a limbus of the eye; determining a current distance between the eye and the entity based on said in-image size dimensions, a curvature of the eye cornea, a physical limbus size and a physical feature size; and determining said calibration information in the form of a focal length and/or a field of view of the camera based on said current distance and said physical limbus size dimension.
